At the 11 am service June 29, the congregation at St. Bart's remembered late Alabama National Guardsman James G. Patterson for his service at Selma in March 1965.

After the service, St. Bart's LGBT fellowship met for lunch at rooftop patio. Later, we joined other Episcopal parishes to march in New York's LGBT Pride parade. It was a warm day with many memories.

 

Of course, it was Lillian who first brought me to St. Bart's in the 1970s.
