It’s PIE Day in two weeks! Let’s eat pie and watch a movie!
Celebrate our Affirming church on Saturday March 14th at 700 pm
PIE Day, also known as National Affirming Day, is a day to celebrate our status as an Affirming church!
“PIE” stands for Public, Intentional, Explicit Inclusion of 2SLGBTQIA+ People. Every year, we celebrate PIE
Day on March 14th. (March 14 = 3.14 = π = pi = PIE, right?)
On Saturday, March 14 we are going to celebrate PIE Day! Meet us at 700 p.m. for lots of pie and a screening of the movie Small Town Pride, an intimate look at the joys and challenges of being queer in a small town. Filmed in Alberta, Nova Scotia and the Northwest Territories, the film follows LGBTQ2S+ people and allies as they prepare for their local Pride celebrations. Organizing in church basements, classrooms and around kitchen tables, they take on a conservative town council that won’t fly a rainbow flag and bend some rules to create a safe space for youth to come out. But despite experiences of isolation and discrimination, they love their communities and strive to make them places where everyone, no matter who and how they love, can live and thrive.
This event is free, donations in support of Gukwas sa Wagalus gratefully accepted.
