The Lower Mainland United Churches of Canada Pride Cluster — a group of Affirming United Church congregations from across the region — is taking part in Vancouver Pride 2026 together. Trinity-Grace United Church is a proud Affirming congregation, and for them Pride flows from a year-round commitment to LGBTQ2SIA+ inclusion, justice, and welcome, alongside their partners in Affirm United. Allies, families, and first-timers are all warmly welcome to walk along.

A note on "being present"
This is the cluster's first time engaging together in these marches, and for now the point is simply to be there with the community — showing up, being present with one another, and getting to know the community around them. Wearing a Pride t-shirt makes the group easier to find.
Swag
Pride t-shirts are $20 each. Sleeved shirts come in black and grey (Medium, Large, X-Large). Sleeveless/tank tops are available in grey, black, and white with limited sizing and stock. To order, email the church with quantities and sizes ahead of time for pickup; payment by e-transfer, credit, or cash.
