Powell House Youth Program

The Senior High School group met at Powell House on April 22–24, 2005, to discuss the conference topic of "Sex & Religion". Over the weekend, friends discussed what they knew about sex and how their religion affected their views. Out of the discussion, the participants wrote and approved the following minute.

“Sexuality is our remarkable capacity to give and receive pleasure, comfort and mutual care through our bodies and through sensuous touch...”
—Marvin M. Ellis, Erotic Justice: A Liberating Ethic of Sexuality
