“We Are Precious and We are Powerful” – June 1st, 2025

Jun 2, 2025

Rev. Sophia preaching, with Safe Congregation, the FPW Choir, Charlyn Bethell and Guy Urban.

Let’s honor the precious and the powerful this Pride Sunday. We will be blessed by special music, a sanctuary bedecked with rainbows, and the prophetic voices and wisdom of our LGBTQIA+ siblings. Wear your rainbow swag and let’s celebrate Pride at FPW! If you would like a Rainbow Blessing by Rev. Sophia before service, she will be near our rainbow chairs on the front lawn starting at 10am.

Please note that in this worship service, and in honor of Pride Month, we center the voices of LGBTQIA+ people through reflections, prayers, and poetry. We humbly thank them for their courage, wisdom, and beauty.
