St. Philip's Celebrates the Rainbow: First-Ever Pride Sunday!

On June 30th,  St. Philip's was bedecked with rainbows inside and out to provide a special welcome to LGBTQ+ and Two-Spirit people and their families and friends as the church celebrated its first-ever Pride Sunday.

Many parishoners wore vibrant, colourful clothing as Rev. Lorne Manweiler led a festive Eucharist with prayers, music, readings and preaching affirming the dignity and worthiness of all children of God.  The celebration continued afterwards in the church hall, with a coffee-and-cake reception.

For full details of the service, see the attached Order of Service below.  A link to the recording of the livestream on Facebook is also provided.  (Note that the livestream feed starts with a still image about 10-15 minutes prior to the service.  When viewing our Pride Sunday recording, move the progress slider to 12:30 for the actual beginning of the service).
