This page is devoted to images of vigils, prayer services and public rainbow displays in response to the Orlando Massacre. From California to Maine, Minnesota to Florida, ONA congregations responded with grief, prayer, and re-commitment to the values of inclusion, justice and reconciliation that are at the heart of the Open and Affirming movement in the United Church of Christ. By displaying rainbow flags and images in public view, by organizing public services of remembrance and protest, UCC congregations have proved to their LGBTQ neighbors that we stand with them. This is why we are ONA!

If you would like photos from your church posted here, please send them (identifying the church’s name and location) to Andy Lang at ed@openandaffirming.org.
