The NW Washington Synod has PRIDE!  

We are proud to be a Reconciling in Christ synod and there are many opportunities for you and your church to join in and celebrate during the 2025 Pride Season.

Seattle PRIDE Parade

  • We will be marching in the Seattle PRIDE parade again on Sunday, June 29, 2025
  • We are limited to 200 persons.
  • To register to walk in the Seattle Parade, email Jill with the 1) name of your congregation, 2) your main contact/leader, 3) their email and cell phone, AND 4) the number of committed walkers by June 16. (Register ASAP as space is limited to 200 walkers - first come first served, we will keep a waitlist if we get full) 
  • Details about arrival time and location will be shared with the congregation leader the week prior to the parade
  • We are looking for a person or two to serve as the check in folks at the parade this year – Interested/able??  Email Pastor Gina Herman ASAP to discuss!

Additional PRIDE Events Around the Synod

There are many different PRIDE events happening throughout this summer across our Synod. Like last year, our hope is to show up to as many events as possible! We hope to add Lutheran Point People for these events – if you / your church is planning to attend an event and you are willing to be the person others could reach out to – please email Susan Berg to discuss!
