The weekend will focus on uniting families through unconditional
love.
Joe Dallas will be our opening speaker.
This is a two-day experience for parents and friends of gay, lesbian
and transgendered children. This is NOT a parent-child retreat, but
an experience for parents who unconditionally love their children.
PFOX will provide educational resources, testimonies from former
homosexuals and transgenders. You’ll have the opportunity to meet
and form friendships with families who understand and share your
feelings.
Friday's meetings are from 7-9:30 PM. Saturday's meetings are from 8:30 AM to 8 PM.

Parents and Friends of Ex-Gays & Gays
Welcome to PFOX
PFOX is not a therapeutic or counseling organization. PFOX supports families, advocates for
the ex-gay community, and educates the public on sexual
orientation. Each year thousands of men, women and teens
with unwanted same-sex attractions make the personal
decision to leave homosexuality. However, there are those
who refuse to respect that decision. Consequently, formerly
gay persons are reviled simply because they dare to exist!
Without PFOX, ex-gays would have no voice in a hostile
environment.
PFOX families unconditionally love
their children.
PFOX parents recognize our children for the wonderful young
men and women they are.PFOX families do not label children based on who they
are attracted to—feelings can and do change.PFOX families allow for differences of opinion; we do
not place requirements on our children nor do they place
them on us.
That’s what unconditional love means—loving each other
even when we do not agree. Learn more about PFOX.
As we make continuing advances in the science of human sexuality it has become clear that sexual orientation and gender identity are largely fluid, subjectively determined classifications. As to what may drive a person’s sexual orientation and/or sexual appetites, the left-leaning American Psychological Association (APA) has concluded: “Many [scientists] think that nature and nurture both play complex roles.”
The scientifically reinforced fluidity
of sexual orientation and gender identity may help to
explain why, as even the APA has acknowledged, thousands (if
not millions) of people have “altered their sexual
orientation” with “varying degrees of satisfaction and
varying perceptions of success.” It is no longer open for
serious debate. Despite tremendous political pressure to
find otherwise, even the left-leaning APA has been forced to
acknowledged that for people with unwanted same-sex
attractions, “change is possible!” It’s not always easy, but
change is undeniably and conclusively possible.
Friday and Saturday, March 16-17, 2012 for a PFOX family and friends weekend.
