Frank Gasque Dunn has a background combining literature, theology, liturgy, leadership development, and four decades of group work as facilitator, designer, and trainer.  With the degree of Doctor of Ministry and over forty years as priest, teacher, spiritual director, writer, and retreat leader, he currently is a “soul friend,” offering coaching, counseling, and consulting to individuals, groups, and organizations.  He served as Executive Director of Jonathan’s Circle until 2025.  

Some of the influences that led Frank to form Jonathan’s Circle include his own experience in Jungian analysis; his biography as a gay man living through marriage, fatherhood, divorce, and remarriage; his dedication to a radically inclusive expression of Christianity that affirms the universality of the divine life shared with all humanity; and his own discovery of bodily life, especially sexual expression, as a viable path leading to personal wholeness and union with Creator and all creation. 

Frank has been with his partner, Joseph Casazza, since 2006. They were married in the District of Columbia in 2011. Their marriage was blessed by The Right Reverend John Bryson Chane, then the Episcopal Bishop of Washington. They currently live in Cathedral City, CA.
