Enrich Your Life through Service at Easton Mountain

Do you feel a longing to connect with other gay men – not a longing for bars, bath houses, and Working in the kitchencruising areas – but a longing for authentic connection and fellowship in a community devoted to service? Long-time Easton supporter Dave Nimmons (organizer and gay activist), in his book, The Soul Beneath the Skin, documents how gay men are often drawn toward helping and healing professions. You may find within yourself something that says that service can lead to a fulfilling life. You may have been drawn to work within a religious institution, only to feel unwelcome because of your sexual orientation.

Easton Mountain is a place where you can fulfill your longing to serve.

Easton Mountain – built by men who, like yourself, are drawn to service – wants you. Volunteers help with almost every aspect of running our organization and retreat center. You can have the satisfaction of serving your brothers in an environment that supports you as a man who love men.
