Faith in Pride | Pride in Faith

June 25th, 2007

Sunday marked my first trip to the San Francisco’s gay pride parade, where the themes of God, sex and family were on rainbow display, marching down Market Street. Joelle and I were there to follow the march of an Episcopalian parish from the area, St. John’s of the Mission, whose priest is a gay man. The Episcopalians were in good company - in the stretch where we congregated, the people of faith were lining up - Jews, Hindus, Catholics, Unitarians, ministers and laypeople, a gay angel dancing before a multi-colored cross, families, straights and gays - and those were just the religious groups.
