You are invited Sunday, 20th March, to our regular Communion Service for Liverpool's LGBTQIA+ community, friends and family - 6.30pm at St Bride's Liverpool AND ONLINE - refreshments served from 6pm.
This month we welcome back the lovely Anne Lawlor, Team Vicar of Kirkby and long term friend for Open Table who lead the service.
We’ll be celebrating Transgender Day of Visibility. International Transgender Day of Visibility is an annual event occurring on March 31 dedicated to celebrating transgender people and raising awareness of discrimination faced by transgender people worldwide, as well as a celebration of their contributions to society. As always EVERYONE is welcome - bring a friend. #ComeAsYouAre.
To help keep the gathering as safe as possible we ask you to wear a mask unless you are exempt, and will continue to observe social distancing. To help you feel more comfortable in the space, we’ve bought some lanyards in red, orange and green and you’ll be invited to pick a red one if you wish to keep strict social distancing, orange for the middle (e.g. fist bump etc) and green if you are comfortable with a hug or handshake. Everyone will asked to respect each other’s choices, it will all help us to gather again both safely and comfortably.
Otherwise, feel free to continue to tune in on zoom. I, Warren, will be on zoom to welcome you (see below for joining details.)
We look forward to welcoming you!
