b'People sometimes ask: Is Pride a protest\\nOr a party? And the answer is of course\\nYes. And why not?\\nWhy not rejoice as we resist\\nDance as we demand change\\nCelebrate as we create community that delights in all of who we are?\\nSo bring all of that with you this morning.\\nBring your policy demands\\nBring your glitter\\nBring your supreme court broken heart\\nBring your rainbow socks\\nBring the emptiness you feel\\nFor our siblings gone too soon.\\nBring your Gloria Estefan remix\\nBring your tender hope for change\\nBring your most garish eyeshadow\\nBring your spirit, tattered and battered\\nBy a world that seems insistent on\\nChoosing fear and hate.\\nGather up all these things\\nAnd bring them here\\nTo a place where we don\\u2019t have to shoulder these burdens or celebrate these joys alone.\\nCome, let us worship together.'
