Aloha To my Family, Friends and Loved ones,
A little about myself.
Like most of those who will visit this site I'm a transgendered lady. I was 52 when the need to be the person I always was inside finally happened. I wish I could say that it was an easy transition, but alas, as most of us who have made this choice of being who we really are know it does have a high price when it comes to family and friends, and mine was no different.
Why the delay for so long? Well like a lot of us I had a very real Love in my heart for my Lord, and that always seemed to be a conflict with my need to be myself.
For years I really believed that I was the only one who felt this way and as such it just had to be a sin. It took the losing of my life's mate of 31 yrs., because she could no longer accept my need to be a woman, in order to come to terms with who I was, and accept that it was O.K. for me to be Cheryl in God's plan.
At times I feel like Job in that I have lost all of my family by marriage and birth, but God has given me back a new family. A family who accepts me for who and what I am. He has made it possible for me to return to the ministry and I now pastor a Full Gospel church along with a gay man and a lesbian woman
Please read and enjoy my Thoughts on being a Transgendered Christian.
Not to bad for being 59
