I'll be working a table at Pride Iowa City next week for an open and affirming church.

Trying to let our LGBTQ+ friends that people who are real Christians know that Jesus said "love them all. Welcome them all. All are welcome at the table."

Knowing the hateful anti-LGBTQ+ legislation going through Iowa and the feds, I could only do one of the two events.

Grateful for all the people who protested against Mango Mussolini and for democracy.

You all give me hope too... not on all days. But definitely today.
