Kyrkan är så mycket mer än hemförsamlingen
I september åker hon på ett tremånaders utbyte till Costa Rica. Där ska hon dela vardag, tro och liv med människor hon aldrig träffat, i ett land och en kultur hon än så länge bara läst om. I Costa Rica ska Elin bland annat besöka ILCO-kyrkan, som bland annat arbetar med HBTQ-frågor, för kvinnors och […]
