'It Gets Better' Gives Hope to Gay Youth

The Rt. Rev. Gene Robinson, Bishop of New Hampshire's "It Gets Better" YouTube Video. He says:  
"Hang in There, be strong ... God loves you and only wants the best for you."

"You gotta give 'em hope," Harvey Milk said.

Today’s "It Gets Better" campaign on YouTube is giving hope to young people facing homophobic bullying, harassment and thoughts of suicide.

We are calling on Oasis congregations across the Bay Area to help "It Gets Better” illustrate the love that is available to the LGBTQ teens from the affirming religious community.

For LGBT clergy, you can submit an "It Gets Better” video. Or you might help an out LGBT person in your congregation record one.

Or you might do both of these steps. Harvey was right: “We have to give ‘em hope.”

And we need to do that today.
