D of NW Priest Participates in Rainbow Photo

The Reverend John Sovereign retired priest of the Diocese of New Westminster with Permission to Officiate was one of 100 volunteers who showed up in designated rainbow colours for a photo shoot to celebrated the new rainbow crosswalk in downtown Chilliwack in the middle of a summer downpour on Tuesday, July 9.

John has been a tireless supporter of SOGI causes everywhere but primarily in the Fraser Valley where the appearance of protesters at pro-SOGI events is not unheard of. There were a few at the photo shoot on July 9.

Rev. Sovereign's daughter Sarah is a brilliant photographer and she got the gig to take the photos including the one chosen as the official photo also included in this post.
