Prayers for Pride on the Patio

Please join us on the patio on Saturday, June 19 at 5:30 pm as we offer prayers of thanksgiving for God’s abundant love expressed in the beautiful diversity of human relationships, as we offer thanks for the inclusivity of our church, and as we pray for justice, peace, and full legal protections for all LGBT+ persons. 

All parishioners are invited to participate in this prayer service, regardless of your sexual orientation or gender identification. Allies are especially welcome. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to share our faith with the community. Following our prayers, please join for cookies, lemonade and fellowship.
