hello gays for Jesus on tumblr i know i don't use this blog like i used to but i would like some advice thank you <3

so my church is looking for catechists (catholic sunday school teachers) & i talked to someone from the school yesterday & i'm thiiiinking of applying? tbh idek if i have to apply bc the way she worded it it sounded like i take an online class & i'm set.

i'm worried about it for 2 reasons: 1) i'm gay lol. a nb lesbian if you will. i'm not out at my church & i don't want to be. my family & i have been attending this church since i was a kid in sunday school. i'm worried that, if i become a catechist, then i'll have to hide my queerness way more than i do now. i'm also worried that i'll have to teach some homophobic/ignorant ideas (that didn't happen when i was in sunday school, but there could always be a kid who asks weird questions ya know).

second reason) i miiiight have too much on my plate if i become a catechist. i'm a college student & next year i will be a year-long intern. i'm also a theatre major so i'll be working on shows as well. & i'm taking 19 credits yeouch. ig i'm worried i won't have the time & energy to do all that plus teach sunday school ya know.

n e way. but i WANT TO ya know. i plan on becoming a teacher & i do want to become more involved in my church so catechism sounds like the perfect answer right? plus all my catechists were old ladies & i didn't learn much from them so mb by becoming a catechist i can be different ya know.

n e way i appreciate any advice i can get from the gays for Jesus on tumblr. you can reply to this post, shoot me an ask, or dm me & i'll look at it i prommy. or you can pray for me & i'll appreciate that as well. ok thanks baes bye
