From Bishop Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows

We believe, “God loves you. No exceptions.” The Diocese of Indianapolis is a beautiful community where all of God’s beloved find a home regardless of gender or sexual identity or expression. We have a legacy and a witness of full inclusion, aspiring to tell and exemplify God’s love for every human. If you identify as LGBTQIA+ know that we celebrate you not only during Pride but every day of the year. You are beloved, made in the image of God, and the Diocese of Indianapolis is incomplete without you.

If your congregation or neighborhood will be participating in local Pride events and would like IndyDio Swag to increase your presence, please click here. 

Our LGBTQIA+ toolkit empowers you to stay informed and take action. You can also find the Episcopal Pride Shield, our Pride graphic, and a printable pride bifold that can be helpful at pride tables. Click here to access the LGBTQIA+ Toolkit.

2026 Diocesan Pride Photo Album

We loved seeing all of the photos from around the Diocese last year, so let's make a 2026 Pride album again this year! It's extra helpful if you put the church and city in the naming of the photo then we can tag your church on Facebook.

Indy Pride is Saturday, June 13. Volunteers are needed to march in the parade, volunteer for a shift at booth at the festival at Military Park & White River State Park, or both.

Registration for the parade and festival is strongly encouraged so we can communicate with you most effectively. Participation in the parade is free and festival volunteers will receive tickets from the Diocese for entering the festival.
