Over the past several months, the Welcoming Congregation Committee has shared Coastline articles on the meanings and significance of the Progress Flag and on October 9, a Congregational Conversation was held after the Worship service to discuss displaying the Progress Flag on the UCF campus. The Welcoming Congregation Committee wants to make sure all members, friends, and visitors have opportunities to learn more about the Progress Flag and to provide feedback and ideas on the exterior placement of the flag on UCF’s campus.

We will temporarily display the flag inside the lobby of UCF beginning the week of January 2, 2023. There will be a handout in the lobby to provide information on the significance of this flag and the impact that displaying this can have for the LGBTQ+ community and our community at large. Please feel free to take this handout and to also share with your neighbors and friends. The Welcoming Congregation Committee looks forward to hearing your feedback, concerns, and suggestions.
