Metropolitan Community Churches is a fellowship of more than 300 Protestant Christian congregations with a focus on outreach to gays, lesbians, bisexuals and the transgendered.
The first congregation was founded in Los Angeles by Rev. Troy Perry in 1968, a time when Christian attitudes toward homosexuality were almost universally negative.
The church bases its theology on the Apostles and Nicene creeds. It rejects literal interpretation of the Bible, asserting that context and culture are important to biblical interpretation.
