  • The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are an order of LGBTQ+ nuns 
  • Earlier this year, they were enmeshed in controversy at a Los Angeles Dodgers game. 
  • Despite that, the Sisters continue to be focused on their community work and support.

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are a unique group of nuns drawn into the spotlight for their sometimes controversial celebrations — but what many have yet to learn about is their community work and love for both critics and fans.

They're an order of LGBTQ+ nuns founded in San Francisco in 1979 with a lengthy history of community service to the LGBTQ+ community, especially during the initial decades of the AIDS crisis.
