Celebrate Pride This Month

This month, we will be focusing on LGBTQ liberation and how our liberation is wound up with the liberation of all people -- especially our BIPOC (black, indigenous, people of color) family. Throughout the month, we will explore people, movements, and ideas that have shaped the movement for LGBTQ inclusion and equality.

On Thursdays we Queer the Bible with Pastor Wes and Dr. Teresa O'Flynne. Join us as we de-code passages used against LGBTQ people and highlight positive stories of queer folk in the Bible.

On Sunday, we support Moms Demand Action Day Against Gun Violence by contemplating non-violence with Rev. Pressley Sutherland. Orange is the color of gun violence awareness, so consider wearing orange on Sunday and taking a photo of yourself to show your support.

Next Monday, think about joining our Book Club, celebrating the young voices in the LGBTQ movement by reading Rainbow Briefs by Kira Harp.

Continue looking for ways we will celebrate Pride in worship, films, and discussion all month. At the end of the month, we will continue our liberating work by turning our focus to ways we can use what we know to fight for the liberation of our BIPOC family.
