Bishop Yvette Flunder is an openly lesbian Christian minister who founded and heads the City of Refuge Church. she is regarded by those close to her as someone who stands with the minority and a voice for those who cannot speak out for themselves.
she was born on July 29, 1955, in San Francisco and she founded her church in the year 1991. the church they say welcomes people from all walks of life; irrespective of race, gender, and sexual orientation.
She attests that there is nothing wrong with a woman being a bishop and that women should not be restricted from speaking or teaching in churches as Paul wrote.
She also believes being involved in a same-sex relationship or marriage is not a sin, explaining that most of the writings in the Bible were written by the people of that age for their contemporaries and that times have changed and Christians need to evolve.
She’s officially married to her lesbian partner, Shirley Miller. Bishop Flunder never hesitates to express her love for Shirley in public and once serenaded her in church.
