IL Church’s Anti-Pride Message Draws Protests [VIDEO]

Chicago’s ABC affiliate reports:

As communities across Chicago and its suburbs prepare for Pride parade weekend, a suburban church has become the center of controversy, drawing dozens of protesters over messaging displayed on an electronic sign. Several dozen protesters, waving rainbow flags and carrying signs, stood outside the church to voice their concerns. Organizers said the demonstration was peaceful and intended to raise awareness.

“Our goal was to let other residents of Palatine know what this Church preaches and that Palatine is better than that,” said Paul Dombrowski of the Northwest Suburban Pride Network. Church members also gathered nearby, observing the protest. Demonstrators said they are particularly concerned about the impact of the messages on children, noting the church’s proximity to a school. One message displayed on the sign read, “ditch Pride, embrace humility.”
