Some churches embrace Pride month with drag queens, queer proms and gay concerts

Several churches are celebrating Pride month by hosting events including queer proms, a drag queen story hour and a study to liberate themselves “from the Bible as a weapon of exclusion.”

A 2020 study from the University of California Los Angeles School of Law Williams Institute found that 47% of Americans who identified as LGBTQ also considered themselves moderately or highly religious, according to NBC News. As June goes into full swing, houses of worship in Ohio, New York, California and Maryland are hosting several Pride-themed events.
