We are all made in the image of God in all our diversity. Every skin colour, every (dis)ability, every sexuality and gender expression.
Pride Sunday, the first week in June, gives us an opportunity to shout these truths to the roof tops! But each community also celebrates at different times during the summer. Here are a few ideas to help make your celebrations special.
