Thanks to
everyone who helped by pitching in or showing up or making a
donation or buying a t-shirt or worshipping with us on the
streets of San Francisco Sunday morning.
Special thanks
to Deacon Diana Wheeler, Deacon Vince Jang, Don and Carol Anne
Brown, and Oasis Vice President Dan Burner for their hard work
and support. Thanks to our crew of Contingent Monitors who spent
an hour being trained and then worked to keep us safe throughout
the parade. And thanks to Sam Leite for spending his pride
weekend taking photographs.

celebrate Pride 20ll. We hope he had as good a time as we
collectively did and look forward to welcoming him back next
year when his next book is out. See more of Sam's photos from
the Pride Eucharist and Parade here.

We've
just launched a new section of the Oasis web site to help
same gender couples arrange the blessing of their
relationship in a church within the
Episcopal Diocese of California. While developed to meet the
needs of same gender couples, this information can also help
heterosexual couples. Check it out!

you are already a member of a Bay Area Episcopal Church, skip
this paragraph. If not, you can
find a church home among these
Oasis
Congregations - they are LGBT friendly Episcopal churches
across the Bay Area. An interfaith directory of LGBT-welcoming
faith communities and congregations in the San Francisco Bay
Area is also maintained by the Center for Lesbian and Gay

Finding church a bit un-welcoming these days? Come hang out and discuss
religion and spirituality from an affirmative, pro-LGBTQ perspective.
We're Christian and we're open to all. Each week features a guest
facilitator, followed by time to hang out and chat about religion,
spirituality, and sexuality.
A Ministry sponsored by St. Aidan's Episcopal Church and the San Francisco
Night Ministry.
