March with BJC at World Pride!
Shabbat, Jun 7th 2:00p to 5:00p
Bethesda Jewish Congregation is proud to march in the World Pride Parade on June 7th—and we want YOU to join us! For the past three years, our community has shown up to Capital Pride with spirit and solidarity, and this year, we’re hoping to make our fourth march the biggest and most joyful yet. Marching together is a powerful way to stand up for love, inclusion, and justice. It's a celebration of who we are—an open and welcoming congregation that affirms the dignity and worth of every individual. Whether you're a longtime member, a friend of the community, or simply looking for a welcoming groupto walk with, we invite you to step out with us in support of LGBTQ+ pride. Bring your signs, your smiles, and your ruach (spirit)—let’s make this our most colorful and spirited showing yet! Please register to march, pick your t shirt size (by May 21) and we'll keep you posted on meeting details and the march route.
