PRIDE 2022

Remember last year's AGM when we as a Faith Community voted unanimously to become an Affirming Congregation of the United Church of Canada?  That was such a momentous occasion in the history of Lynn Valley United Church.

Since then, COVID has continued to play havoc with our ability to congregate, but the Affirming Ministry Team really wants to host a party for the entire congregation and any friends you want to invite.  We put our heads together and decided how we just might pull this off!

Sunday, July 24 is going to be our Pride Celebration Sunday!  Franklyn is going all out with planning for another one of his incredible Worship experiences.  We are going to share Communion together and, after the service, there will be a catered lunch.

Yes, a catered lunch!  That means we are not asking you to stay up late and bake or get up early to make fresh sandwiches.  The Affirming Ministry Team is hiring The Lazy Gourmet to make some wonderful individual-sized portions with Nut Free, Gluten Free, and Vegan options, so everyone can participate.  (Actually all of the options wil be nut-free, since LVUC is now a nut-free building!  You can act nutty, but you can't eat nuts!)

So, please plan being at church on July 24.  Wear your wildest rainbow colours.  Let your smiles break free, and share in the joy of this celebration of acceptance and freedom with your wider church family!
