Pride Day 2005 in Pittsburgh - Saturday, June 18
I was completely wrong about people at Sixth Presbyterian and people in More Light Presbyterians feeling uncomfortable with me for having a lot of transgender friends. Our church marched in the Pride Parade in Pittsburgh yesterday. Several lesbians and some straight people and children from the church also marched. We had a great time! Our booth was between PNC Park and Heinz Field on the Alleghency. Right across from us was the Point, the fountain, and downtown Pittsburgh. The weather was nice, so it was an absolutely gorgeous view. We passed out literature to many people at the event. Our booth was located right next to the Transgender Support Group. We socialized with them and invited them to our church. They helped us take down our booth at the end of the day. The parade just went off great and it was a totally wonderful event. I feel much closer to the people at the church now and to some of the ones at the event, in particular. I feel a lot better about More Light Presbyterians after participating in this event with the church.
