We are standing in remembrance of the Pulse Night Club Shooting & all other acts of gun violence that have effected not only our LGBTQIA+ community but every group/person around the country.
Feel free to make signs, or just come stand peacefully on the 101.

LGBTQIA+ people of faith often experience emotional and spiritual injury in churches that condemn their capacity to love and seek love.

YCPC wants you to know that no matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome!
