Contribution Story

(Note: A “signature stole” is one that is covered with the signatures of both gay and straight members of a congregation, denominational governing body, or other organization.  These stoles serve the dual purpose of showing support for LGBT persons, while also protecting their anonymity by including their names as "one among many".)

This stole was donated together with matching stoles from First Presbyterian Church of Albany, NY and First United Presbyterian Church of Troy, NY.
