We Celebrate!

At UCYM, we join our siblings in the LGBTQ+ Community as they celebrate PRIDE during the month of June. PRIDE didn't just come out of a need to celebrate identity, but freedom, the constant reminder for the need of protection, and belonging. The Catholic Church is very clear in that we must uphold the dignity of every person, which has no conditions. Our doctrine is also very clear in that we must refrain from judgment and, instead, love one another. 

We hope you will take this opportunity to learn, celebrate with, and pray for our LGBTQ+ Community.
