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!

You Sorbet-ter Work!
