Our Marriage Equality Banner
After going through the UUA program our congregation voted to become a Welcoming Congregation in 1993. In 2006 our Inclusion Task Force voted to have a more visible expression of our support for equal marriage rights for all by having a banner outside the church. The Board of Trustees having no objections, members of the Inclusion Task Force and the Social Justice Council purchased and erected the banner on June 14th.
| Congregants gathered after the Sunday service on June 15th to show their support. |  |
| Unfortunately the banner was vandalized on the night of July 2nd. |  |
| Members of the congregation carried the torn banner in Rochester's annual Gay Pride parade on Saturday, July 8, and a replacement was installed on the church after the service on July 9th. |  |
