Start the day by helping decorate the Parade Float at Augustana Lutheran Church at 9:00 AM or join in at 3:00 PM to walk or ride in the Parade.
- Sunday, June 9:
Help attend the Synod booth at the Pride Festival by greeting people, spreading the message of God’s Radical Love for ALL, giving out items, and engaging participants in activities. There are shifts available from 11:00 AM–8:00 PM.
For those interested in learning more about how to engage, what language to use, what to wear, etc., the RIC Team is providing a training session for all ages on Sunday, May 19, at 5:00 PM (note new time) on Zoom. While this training is geared towards preparing for the DC Pride Parade and Festival, it is open to anyone who will be representing a faith community at any Pride event!
