WORSHIP JUNE 30, 10:00 AM: CELEBRATING GOD-GIVEN PRIDE!

  • Bethesda Presbyterian Church 7611 Clarendon Road Bethesda United States (map)

Here's Sunday's Bulletin Join us after 10 am Worship for our 11:15 Summer Book Discussion in the Fellowship Hall: Marilynne Robinson's The Givenness of Things -- chapters Awakening, Decline, & Fear. Our spiritual community is forged through discussions like these. Listen in and Pitch in!

Pride. It's been 50 years since Stonewall. It's been nine since our Statement of Welcome that graces the front of every one of our bulletins. And it's been eight years since the Presbyterian Church (USA) officially allowed the ordination of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender pastors.

Officially. Because Pride -- a good thing, when it is asserted to affirm God's Creation -- has existed in our church and others for many decades. This Sunday, Rev. Chuck will share a few of his stories and ours in the Presbyterian Church's long march to rainbow justice.

Come, let's celebrate God-Given Pride together this Sunday!
