MHP Monthly – June 2024

These lyrics come from a U2 Song, “Pride in the Name of Love”. As we enter Pride month, I want us to be remembering to be proud of the One who came in the name of love…for us, for all. Be proud of being a follower of the One who stood in the face of the oppressive culture that epitomized hate and exclusion and included all. Be proud of the One who showed us what it means to show love, and mercy and grace to any and all.

What are you proud of? A moment in your life? Your family? An accomplishment? Your house? Gardens? Something else? Let’s share those with one another! Send me (Pastor Cherie pastorcherie@gmail.com) your pictures so we can share them with our MHP family in our Sunday Services and our newsletter.

Blessings and Peace,
Pastor Cherie

July 22, 2024

Hello, Friends and community of Swansea!

We wanted to thank you for all the wonderful feedback and positive response to the Patchwork Pride Flag that flew from the tower of Morningside High-Park from June 15th to July 20th. The 12.5 ft by 24.5 ft. work is now safely stored in the church awaiting its next installation. The project was a huge success, yielding not only a fabulous flag, but succeeding in bringing our community together in support of all our LGBTQI+ family and friends.  We are so grateful for those who helped knit, crochet, sew, and mount the work, and we look forward to flying it again during Pride Month next year.

In the meantime, if any of you are interested in seeing the flag again before June of 2025, consider visiting the Chatham-Kent Pride Fest on Saturday August 17th, 2024, where the flag will be featured.

Wishing you a wonderful summer,

The session of Morningside-High Park Presbyterian Church
