WWW JUSTOUT COM Wednesday, January 12 at 7 p.m. The sermon for this annual event will be delivered by the Reverend David E. Wcekley, the first openly transgender pastor in the United M ethodist Church, with a special appearance by mem bers o f the Portland Gay Men’s Chorus. While this free event is in commemoration o f Aelred of Rievaulx— a 12th century Eng lish abbot in the Cisterian order— the signifi cance o f this mass with relation to the Rev. Weekley’s participation, as well as P G M C ’s, is noted by Integrity as an important event to highlight the issue of homosexuality within Christianity. St. Aelred is widely speculated by scholars of his essays and letters to have been gay. He was adopted as Integrity’s patron in 1987. The event will include both the traditional prayer for St. Aelred’s Day and new prayers for the EGBTQ_community, and will finish with communion. The Retired Reverend Michael J. Hanley, Bishop of Oregon, has written a special blessing for the occasion, and a reception will follow the event in the parish hall.
