White House Reception
for LGBT Pride Month
WASHINGTON - The Human Rights Campaign, the nation's largest lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) civil rights organization, released a statement on the President and First Lady's White House reception for LGBT pride month. The event was described by the White House as an opportunity to recognize and celebrate the accomplishments of LGBT Americans. Invited guests include families, volunteers and activists, and community leaders.
Human Rights Campaign President Joe Solmonese issued the following statement: "President Obama's remarks today were welcomed and appreciated and, as he stated, it is the actions to advance equality -- not simply the words -- that will be the true marker by which this White House will be judged. On the eve of this weekend's 40th anniversary of Stonewall, the president has yet again reiterated his support for most of the critical federal issues facing millions of LGBT Americans. . We must continue the hard work of turning that support into the passage of actual laws. "

Food for Homeless People
Candy Johnson leads a ministry to feed the homeless and this is done every 2nd Saturday of the Month. We meet at church at 10:00 am to prepare the food and leave at 12:00 noon to hand it out and to also pray for the people. There is a sign up sheet on the striped table. Sign the left side if you want to donate food or supplies, and sign the right side if you want to help volunteer that day. This is a very important ministry as it touches many lives and we ask you to help out as you are able.
