Abstract: 
SPARROW is a groups of people in Halifax who share Christian and homosexual-oriented concerns. A general goal of the group is outreach to other gay people and dialogue with the 'straight' community. They are also concerned about restoring a sense of dignity and self-worth to gay people. Each year SPARROW meets for a retreat experience to reflect upon its goals of outreach and dialogue.

Presently, the group numbers about 20 people. Members meet weekly, conduct a Sunday evening coffee house and participate in other social activities together.

SPARROW is connected with the Gay Alliance for Equality (GAE) in Halifax. GAE also provides a location for SPARROW activities.
