Rainbow Reflections 2026
About
Join Acceptance Perth for a welcoming, in-person LGBTIQA+ Catholic/Christian gathering – an evening of shared dinner, reflection, and community in East Victoria Park.On the third Friday of every month, we gather from 6:00 PM to approximately 8:30–9:00 PM for a relaxed evening that includes a shared meal and a spiritual component. This may take the form of a short Gospel reflection, a video, or a guest speaker on a topic drawn from faith and life.
We open with a simple check-in – one thing you are grateful for and one memorable moment from the last 24 hours – and close with a short time of prayer where we are invited to offer up whatever we would like to leave with God. Sharing is always optional and entirely on your own terms.
These gatherings offer a chance to encounter God as you are, while building meaningful friendships with others who share similar values and experiences. (You may also hear this described as an LGBTIQA+ cell group or connect group.)
Cost options: $15 per person – includes pizza, garlic bread, and drinks
$10 per person for those who need a little financial breathing room – no questions asked
Free for those who wish to attend without having dinner – a gold coin donation or more is welcome
Can't eat pizza? You are welcome to bring your own meal. Just let us know when you book so we can plan our event accordingly.
When you arrive, look out for our A-frame sign at the entrance. Head up the stairs to the first floor and go to the office on your right. Someone will be there to welcome you. Please note there is no lift at this venue. If you have difficulty with stairs and would like to attend, please get in touch and we will do our best to assist.
By attending an Acceptance Perth event, you agree to abide by the following Code of Conduct.
– Acceptance Perth events are intended to be safe, respectful, and nourishing spaces for LGBTIQA+ people of faith, as well as their supporters and allies. As a condition of entry, all participants are required to help make these gatherings a sanctuary for LGBTIQA+ people. This includes treating all participants with respect and consideration, valuing a diversity of experiences, backgrounds, and identities, and engaging with kindness, courtesy, attentive listening, sensitivity, and mutual respect.
– LGBTIQA+-phobic, racist, sexist, pro-conversion-therapy, or otherwise bigoted or abusive language or behaviour will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
– We affirm that God calls each person to discern and live out their own path in life. Acceptance Perth does not support pressure of any kind, including (but not limited to): pressure into celibacy, unwanted romantic or sexual advances, pressure to enter or remain in a relationship, pressure to transition or de-transition.
- Acceptance Perth events are safe spaces. Antisocial behaviour of any kind – whether physical, verbal, or digital – may result in immediate removal from the event and a permanent ban from future events.
- As many religious and secular spaces remain unsafe for LGBTIQA+ people of faith to speak openly, confidentiality is essential. What is shared within the gathering stays within the gathering. Personal stories, names, or identifying details must not be shared outside the space without explicit consent.
- Photography, filming, or audio recording is not permitted at any Acceptance Perth event unless prior written permission has been granted by the organisers.
- The organisers reserve the right to withdraw, refuse, or revoke participation at their discretion in order to uphold this Code of Conduct.
