Pride Shabbat is an opportunity provides a way for our community to come together and share joyous and meaningful prayer in an inclusive environment
that welcomes lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning Jews, their friends and families. Last year there was fabulous turn out more of than 300 participants at
the Pride Shabbat service. Pride Shabbat has the endorsement of the Jewish Federatin of Greater Seattle and other groups including Congregation Tikvah Chadashah and Koleinu.
Its attendance grew when it was a project of Bashert: the LGBT initiative of the Jewish Federation. It has been a celebration of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender and questioning Jews, friends, allies and families.
2013 is the fifth year Pride Shabbat since Pride Shabbat has been by the full membership of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle. We've come a long way! In 2013 Pride Shabbat will held at Hillel UW in the University District.
It is inspiring to pray for liberation and freedom together. Pride Shabbat 2008 marked a step forward in the embracing of all GLBTQ 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. Since 2008 Pride Shabbat has demonstrated
that the majority of congrations today in our community are welcoming and inclusive.
