Calvary will sponsor a booth at this year’s Pride Festival, a diverse and community-friendly event featuring live entertainment on two stages, over 150 vendors, a food truck park, a VIP lounge, free and discreet HIV screenings, and more. We will also march in the annual Memphis Pride Parade that begins at 1 p.m. at 4th and Beale and makes its way through the historic Beale Street Entertainment District. There are a number of volunteer opportunities at various times on the day of the festivities. Sign up below!
As a diverse congregation, Calvary believes deeply in a simple truth: God loves you. No exceptions. Participating in Pride is one way we live out that faith publicly—showing our LGBTQIA+ neighbors, friends, and family that they are beloved, valued, and fully welcome in our church community. Walking together is both a celebration and a witness to the radical hospitality of God’s love, reminding our city that faith and affirmation belong together.
