The Wellness Wave is a proud initiative of the Rise Above Community, a program of Flaming for Jesus, creating safe, affirming spaces for LGBTQ+ individuals affected by religious trauma and discrimination.

We understand that true wellness is rarely achieved alone, especially for those who have experienced religious trauma. Our community provides a safe and affirming space where you can connect with others, share your experiences, and find unwavering support.

During the Wellness Wave, you'll have opportunities to engage with the Rise Above Community through:
    • Virtual Check-ins: Share your progress, ask questions, and connect with other participants.
    • Group Activities: Participate in fun and engaging activities that promote both hydration and community building.
