The Blessings of Pride

10 a.m. only
Celebrant: Ben Spick

As the Des Moines community and most cities and states celebrate LGBTQ Pride, this Sunday we appreciate the blessings of Pride through the words and songs of Unitarian Universalist LGBTQ ministers and members. In February, we lifted up the voices of UUs of color. This service will follow a similar format, reminding us of our proud history of support for civil marriage as a civil right—and the challenges that remain. All in all, it’s an opportunity to celebrate the Blessings of Pride.  All are invited to join fellow UUs in marching in the Des Moines Pride Parade after the service, beginning at the State Capital at noon.

Please bring a flower from your garden or florist to share in our annual Flower Communion. (Some flowers will also be available for those who forget)

Special music by Megan Irey & Auden Eaton
