The series of events, to have been labeled the ā€œTapestry of Pride,ā€ were originally planned for dates between June 5 to 8 to celebrate ā€œPride Month,ā€ but were quietlyĀ cancelled without fanfare …

The cancellations spurred Washington’s Capital Pride Alliance to disassociate itself with the Kennedy Center.

 

June Crenshaw, deputy director of Capital Pride Alliance, told the AP that some of the events have been moved to other venues and complained that ā€œthe fact that we have to maneuver in this way is disappointing.ā€ …

Monica Alford, the organizer of a drag queen brunch, was discouraged over the cancellation of her event, which she described as ā€œmeant to be family-friendly, just like the drag brunch was family-friendly and classy and sophisticated.ā€ …

The Kennedy Center has released no statements about these cancellations, but the moves to scale back on the Pride celebrations began almost immediately after Donald Trump fired Center president Deborah Rutter andĀ announced that he intended to reorganize the performance venue. …

“…drag queen brunch…. family-friendly and classy and sophisticated”

“So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. God blessed them and said to them, ‘Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it.'” Genesis 1:27-28

ā€œO child of the devil and enemy of all righteousness, you are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery! Will you never stop perverting the straight ways of the Lord? Acts 13:10

Dear Father and God Almighty, thank You for creating us fearfully and wonderfully… in Your own image. Please LORD, bless all families and keep each one free from the influence of the enemy. Please place each one on Your straight path, to raise strong and healthy children. I pray in the Name of Jesus Christ, You will uproot the spirit of confusion that has taken hold of so many and in His beautiful Name, replant love, devotion and security in all families. Yes Lord, may this defeat the lie of the adversary. I cannot ask too much of You but I can expect too little. Please accept my little prayer for a great victory in families here and abroad. Amen

Thank you Lord that these events at the Kennedy center have been cancelled. I pray that those affiliated with these events turn their lives to Jesus and put their efforts to help Americans who have needs like the hungry and the homeless. In Jesus’ name I pray.

Praise God! We pray that many celebrations of sin in the month of June would be ‘quietly canceled. ” We pray that You’d move in the hearts of the LGBT community and save their souls. Make them a bright and shining light showing what You can really do. I pray they repent for this sin and come to know Jesus.

We pray that the lies about these events being “family friendly ” would be exposed and the people in charge be taken completely out of leadership roles in our society. I pray that these events would not be well attended and that You’d have Americans send a strong message that we don’t want this sin in our country.
