Pride Parade 2011: Power, Passion, Purpose

Once again, the Episcopal Diocese of Los Angeles joined forces with our Lutheran counterparts to celebrate Eucharist together before taking the message of God's inclusive love to the streets of West Hollywood. Here's a look at some of the great cloud of witnesses who gathered this morning:


And here are some photos of another Truly Fabulous Pride Day L.A.

Tick Tock L.A. Pride!

Annual Episcopal-Lutheran Pride Eucharist:

WHEN: Sunday, June 12 • 9:30 am (note time change from earlier 9:00 am announcement)
WHERE: Corner of Santa Monica Blvd & Crescent Heights Blvd in West Hollywood, CA

Celebrating the call to common mission in God's inclusive grace, folks from welcoming Lutheran and Episcopal parishes gather at 9:30 AM for our annual Street Eucharist before the parade begins.

Presiding: The Rev. Susan Russell, All Saints Episcopal Church, Pasadena
Preaching: The Rev. Dean Nelson, Bishop, Southwest CA Synod, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA)

With both communions represented in their own parade units, look for the "pink triangle Martin Luther" and/or the Episcopal flag at the corner of Santa Monica Blvd & Crescent Heights Blvd to guide you to the actual site of the Street Eucharist, which will be held somewhere in the parade line-up, further down Crescent Heights Blvd. (Site TBD Sunday morning based on where our parade units end up in the line-up)
