St. Vincents' is on a mission! All are invited to walk as a parish group in the Capital Pride Parade on Sunday, June 12. The parade is a joyful celebration of the LGBTQ community and participating is a way for us to make visible our courageous hospitality.

The group will gather in the parish parking lot at 11am and walk over to Washington Park to the parade lineup together. Please dress for the weather, and for plenty of walking! (The parish is a mile from the kickoff; the parade is about a mile; a mile back ot the parish. Full route: The Capital PRIDE Parade steps off at noon in Washington Park, at the intersection of Robin and State Streets. From there we will march down State Street, over Lark Street, up Madison Avenue and back into the park at the intersection of Madison and New Scotland Avenues.)

If you wish to bring or wear additional Pride-themed gear, please feel free! Pre-registered participants are asked to wear their T-shirts the day of; T-shirts will be available for pickup on Sunday, June 4, during the sign-making event on the upper level of the parish hall. All are invited to help make signs for parishioners to carry in the parade! Some will be available to be signed by those who wish to co-sign the message of "all are welcome."
