Olomouc Archdiocese cancels pilgrimage for LGBT+ Catholics following hate mail

The Olomouc Archdiocese has cancelled a planned September pilgrimage for LGBT+ Catholics. Organisers said on the Archdiocese’s website that hateful reactions had made it impossible to guarantee a safe environment for participants.

They said, however, that they would continue holding regular small-scale meetings with people of minority sexual orientations. The second annual Pilgrimage Halfway There for LGBT+ believers, their relatives and friends was due to take place in mid-September, Deník N reported.
