Clergy who are vesting and processing- please be there at least 40 minutes prior to service. If you are joining the massive choir, please let me know so I can get a contact list going for rehearsals leading up to the big day :) Same if you play an instrument. If you want to play an instrument- let me know sooner than later so that I can get music scores for you.
There will be a reception to follow: I don't want a logistical nightmare for myself with planning but would LOVE a potluck style of "bring something that represents you and your family".
Red is usually the color of the day- but with me being installed into Known By Name Collective as the Pastor, a 2SLGBTQIA+ ministry- it's more fitting to me and the day that people come in rainbows, colors, brightness.
I am also looking for littles or even older littles to process in at the front of the adults/clergy with rainbow streamers.
If you are not a church person? Just know you are BEYOND welcome and it means more than you know that you will be joining in this day.
For full disclosure on Religious Trauma Informed care- this will be in a church sanctuary where there is a cross, pews, etc. If that space doesn't feel safe for you, please know it is also going to be streamed. Know that you will never have to pray with anyone, or say a creed, or do anything that feels "icky" to you. I want this to be a celebration where everyone feels they belong, are loved, and are included in whatever way feels safe to you.
Just...thank you from the bottom of my heart for everyone involved.
