WE WANT YOU!

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence are looking for volunteers to assist carrying the Pride Flag at the beginning of Seattle’s Annual Pride Parade! Join us in carrying the banner, and celebrating our community, and have a blast with your Seattle Abbey of St. Joan Sisters!

We ask that all volunteers be at the parade-gathering site no later than 10:30am, as the Parade starts at 11am. We will be meeting on 4th Avenue, between Union and University.

We request your attire match the Abbey colors of Black, White, Silver, and Purple. We have Sister t-shirts available in many sizes, discounted for only $12 for volunteers(normal price $22). With that in mind, dress to celebrate whatever Pride means to you, because we love every expression our community has to offer!

The parade is all ages, but it IS a parade, so make sure you are taking care of any younglings and four-legged friends that you may bring, appropriately. Bring water, sunscreen, whatever you may need to take care of yourself, so that you can enjoy every minute to it’s fullest!

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence – The Abbey of St. Joan get the honor of carrying the PRIDE Flag once again at this year’s Pride Parade! And we want you to join us! The flag is really big and we need all the folks we can get to help us. All genders, ages, creeds, races, orientations and abilities are welcome! Bring the whole family!

The one catch: there is a dress code. All walkers/volunteers must wear an official SPI-AOSJ T-shirt or tank top to signify you are with our contingent. Each shirt/tank is $10.

Shirts are available for reservation by contacting Sister Metro at metro@theabbey.org. The shirts will be available to be picked up May 27th at our annual Craptacular Rummage Sale at All Pilgrims Church – 500 Broadway E. – Seattle, WA.

Safety tips: Wear plenty of sunscreen, bring bottled water, bring a snack and wear sensible shoes!
