CTC was PROUD to Co-Sponsor Pride Shabbat 2010.

Pride Shabbat, a project of Bashert: the LGBT initiative of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, is a celebration of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Jews, friends, allies and families. 2010 was the third year Pride Shabbat was endorsed as an official project by the full membership of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle. We've come a long way! In 2010 Pride Shabbat was held at Temple De Hirsch Sinai on Capital Hill. There was a fabulous turn out for this event, we nearly filled all the seats in the chapel. It was inspiring to pray for liberation and freedom together.
Pride Shabbat 2008 marked a step forward in the embracing of all GLBT Jews of our community. In the past rejection by congregations and exclusion from full participation in Jewish life were common and were part of the founding of CTC. In 2008 Pride Shabbat demonstrated that the majority of congrations today in our community are welcoming and inclusive.
