ELPC is a proud co-founder and participant in LAMP – LGBTQIA+ Affirming Ministries of Pittsburgh – see https://sites.google.com/view/inclusivepcusapgh/home?authuser=0.  We are excited to again celebrate Pride in Pittsburgh this summer as we seek to reflect God’s love for all to local LGBTQIA+ people and allies.  While there are many Pride events sponsored by different groups and in different neighborhoods, the two Pride events LAMP will be participating in this year are: Pittsburgh Pride March & Festival on Saturday, June 1 in Downtown & Allegheny Commons Park West – see https://pittsburghpride.com/,   We will also participate in People’s Pride PGH March & Festival on Sunday, June 30 in Wilkinsburg with LAMP – see https://www.sisterspgh.org/2024-peoples-pride-presents-wilkinsburg-pride.. We are excited that ELPC will also be participating in the Disability Pride Pittsburgh Festival at Schenley Plaza on Saturday, August 24 from 11am to 4pm   – see https://www.disabilitypridepa.org/dp-pgh.

You are welcome and needed to participate!!  The ELPC van will be driving in both June marches as will people from our congregation be marching and volunteering at the LAMP info booths at the festivals.  There will be a post-worship Pride Informational Fellowship in the Fellowship Space on May 12.  Please stop by to pick up a march route map, enjoy a snack, and to get your questions answered.  Contact Wil Forrest at wil@coh.net or at 412-441-3800 X218 for more information.
