Yes, you can be Trans and Mormon, though there are many ways to do this. My journey is just one example and I hope this video can help someone who is trying to figure out their relationship with the Church.
residente Nelson, o senhor como homem de Deus possa olhar com mais carinho por nossos irmãos LGBT e que suas palavras possam vir como um alento a todos nós e que o senhor possa fazer como Jesus Cristo acalentar os nossos corações.
Were I to agree with the Church that I have lost my way, my spiritual life would be dead. If I choose to believe now that my spiritual process is leading me wrongly, how could I ever again trust the workings of the Spirit? And how could I trust all that the Spirit has heretofore taught me?

Aqueles que são pegos nesse período de transição, quando os Irmãos resolvem as coisas, têm a possibilidade contínua e real de trauma, rejeição e sofrimento, enquanto estão no cruzamento de sua Fé. É por isso que organizações lideradas por LGBTQ, como a Afirmação, são tão necessárias para apoiar nossos colegas LGBTQ durante essas mudanças.
Como médicos e pilotos, não inventei os princípios que governam a saúde mental LGBTQ – apenas os descobrimos e agora os usamos diariamente para proteger vidas.

The challenges of embracing both my experience and identity as a gay man and my 28 years in relationship with my husband Göran, at the same time as I embrace and affirm my love for the Gospel of Jesus Christ and my testimony of and love for the Church of Jesus Christ have taught me invaluable lessons about faith, about trust, about patience, about life, about community, about relationship, and most importantly about God, and my own divine nature and relationship with him.
Those caught in this transition period as the Brethren work things out have the continued and real possibility of trauma, rejection, and suffering as they stand at the intersection of their Faith. This is why LGBTQ led organizations such as Affirmation are so necessary to support our LGBTQ peers during such changes.
