The 9th annual Taiwan Gay Pride Parade, held on October 29th, 2011, started from Ketagalan Boulevard with a huge rainbow flag held by the 30 people leading the parade. The theme of this year’s parade is “ LGBT Fight Back, Discrimination Get Out!” Just like last year, Tong-Kwang Light House Presbyterian Church actively participated in the parade and walked behind the rainbow flag with the troop.

Tong-Kwang Light House Presbyterian Church also actively took part in the preparation of the parade and was in charge of administrative affairs. To ensure that the flyers containing the idea of appealing for equal rights for gays was delivered to Ketagalan Boulevard on time, the church gathered dozens of church members the night before to pack them ahead of time. Da-wei Chen, the elder in charge of the evangelism department of the church, said that all the participants were fully devoted to this task.

By taking part in this parade, the church not only hopes to fight for gay rights but also spread the idea that “God loves gays.” With that in mind, Tong-Kwang church also allotted special funds to design pink balloons in the shape of a heart inscribed with the words “Love God Belief Truth”.

..In the past 2 years, Tong-Kwang Light House Presbyterian Church has seen the annual gay pride parade as an important mission. During the parade, a representative from the church nicknamed Abraham strongly emphasized that people should not push away gay peoples while spreading the idea of God loves people. Gays are also human; they need to be respected and encouraged, “Abraham” said to every participant. “Please remember, God the creator loves every one of us; and also remember, we are all here together, we are not alone.”
