PrideFest 2010 Update

P1010047

Celebrating with purpose and pageantry and energized by the buoyant presence of multiple congregations, including Lafayette Park UMC, thousands of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals have marched, sung and reflected their way through Gay Pride. Once again Lafayette Park participated in St Louis LGBT PrideFest on June 26 & 27 in Tower Grove Park

.

Several dozen members of the congregation either manned the booth or stopped by to offer support and bring friends to see what we are all about. Besides being an opening and welcoming congregation, we have offer many opportunities to get engaged in social justice. What a great weekend

.

Thanks to everyone that helped make this a great event for our church and the community. Mark your calendar now for PrideFest 2011, June 25th & 26th.
