Australian church leader Reverend Josephine ‘Jo’ Inkpin has described her joy after becoming the first openly transgender person inducted into a mainstream church.
Originally from the UK, Rev Inkpin has served within the Anglican Church in Australia for over 20 years.
In 2017, she came out as transgender while head of the Anglican Church Southern Queensland in Brisbane. As far as she’ss aware, she was the first local church leader to do so.
On March 14, Rev Inkpin made history again when she was officially appointed minister of Pitt Street Uniting Church.
During the ceremony, she received her license to lead the congregation at the progressive church in Sydney.
Many will remember Jo as a member of TgR and the workshops she gave at Transformal.
We wish her well in her new ministry in Sydney.
