In this study, I explore the world of Lesbians, Gays, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Christians and their experiences in faith and sexual identities integration. Using both qualitative and quantitative research methodology, I examined identity integration in 42 self-identified LGBT members of the Free Community Church (FCC) and 2 self-identified LGBT ex-Christians. FCC is a LGBT-affirmative church located in Singapore along Geylang District, with about 161 registered members of diverse sexualities. This research took me about 8 months and my field-site situated within and outside church ground. The survey and interview data collected showed that: (1) Majority of my respondents reported that they had successfully come to terms with their faith and sexual identities through supports from FCC (2) Respondents who participate in church activities find themselves easier to come to terms with their faith and sexual identity than those who did not (3) FCC not only provides a safe place for the LGBT to continue practice their faith and sexuality, but its allow its members to care for other minorities groups in our society.
