TransFaith Worship Service
Sunday, November 19⋅10:00am – 12:30pm

If you are someone who has been hurt by churches, then we would like to invite you to consider reclaiming your spirituality, and come to a place of worship where everyone is welcome and affirmed as a child of God. We provide a safe and affirming place that embraces the gender identity of all of God's creation.

After worship service, you are cordially invited to be our guest, as we gather for a community meal!

Transgender Day of Remembrance Vigil
Sunday, November 19⋅6:00 – 8:30pm

The TDOR Vigil is the backbone to Las Vegas TransPride week. On this evening we gather as a community to remember and up lift the voices of those who were murdered in hate crimes because of who they were as they represented the Gender Diverse Community.

The names read on this evening will be names from across the the globe, as this is a global pandemic of Transphobia!

What is Contra Dance?
Contra Dance is a North American form of folk dance, with its roots in the English Country Dance and Scottish Country Dance traditions brought over by settlers from those countries. 
​
It is a "grandparent" of the more widely recognized American Square Dance, but Contra Dance has older origins, and is much easier to learn. 

​Showing Up for Racial Justice (SURJ) is a national organization that brings hundreds of thousands of white people into fights for racial and economic justice.

For too long, the Right has hoarded wealth and power by using strategic racism to convince white people that we have more in common with billionaires and corporate elites than with the people of color in our communities. At SURJ, we bring our folks in by offering a better alternative: a just, vibrant future where people of all races work together to win what we need. We do this work by building people power in multi-racial communities across our network — through campaigns, 200 chapters across the country, and deep local organizing projects.
