 XIOS
is an organization of Eastern & Near Eastern Orthodox, Byzantine &
Eastern-rite Catholic Gay & Lesbian lay Christians. The word
AXIOS is taken from the Greek liturgical word which
describes a truly worthy and deserving person. Members of
AXIOS are gay or lesbian people who belong to, or have been
educated and reared in, or converted to the Eastern Christian
tradition. It often means people of Greek, Slavic, Albanian, Semitic
or Armenian heritage. Though AXIOS is a lay
organization, bishops, priests and other clergy have also become
members. |
