Sun., June 28: Pride Sunday Is Coming — Lend Your Voice

On Sunday, June 28, GNUUC is holding a special service celebrating Pride — a morning honoring LGBTQIA+ lives and the many shapes love and family take: the families we’re born into and the ones we build by choice.

We’d love for our LGBTQIA+ members and friends to help lead and shape it. There are two ways to take part, and you’re welcome to choose either or both:

1) Read a piece of the service. We’re looking for voices to read parts of the liturgy — the chalice lighting, the meditation, the closing words. Each is short, and we’ll send you the text ahead of time.

2) Join our LGBTQIA+ panel. In place of the sermon, several members will share how this faith helps them move through the world, and how their families — born and chosen — hold them up. You’ll see the questions in advance, can skip anything that doesn’t fit, and share only what you’d like. It’s a warm, friendly room.

Whether you’ve been part of things for years or this would be your first time stepping forward, you are welcome here. If any of this calls to you — or if you’d just like to ask a question first — reach out to Kristin R. at kristin.reveal@gnuuc.org by Friday, June 19. You’re welcome to respond privately; nothing is ever shared without your okay.
