Integrity's Role

Integrity USA was founded in 1974 by
Dr. Louie Crew  who lived in rural Georgia.  Integrity has been the leading grassroots voice for the full inclusion of LGBTQ persons in the Episcopal Church and our equal access to its rites.  However, advocacy is but one facet of our ministry.  At the national level and in local chapters and diocesan networks throughout the country, the primary activities are:

  • worship

  • fellowship

  • education

  • communication

  • outreach, and

  • service to the church

Through Integrity's evangelism, thousands of LGBTQ people, estranged from the Episcopal Church and other denominations, have returned to parish life.

Through Integrity's evangelism, thousands of LGBTQ people, estranged from the Episcopal Church and other denominations, have returned to parish life.  While the Episcopal Church has made tremendous strides toward inclusiveness, it still has a long way to go.  In too many parishes and dioceses, prejudice and oppression are still the norm.  Whatever your sexual orientation, Integrity-Hartford welcomes you for worship, fellowship, education, communication, outreach, and service to the church.
