GARLINGTON: Mayor Ellis Disappoints with Pride Month Celebrations

LGBT Pride Month is coming to Monroe in a big way.  Celebrations are planned for 24 June at the Louisiana Purchase Gardens & Zoo and for 29 June at the Monroe Civic Center Arena.  These dates are significant for Christians:  June 24th is the Nativity of St. John the Baptist; June 29th is the feast day commemorating the martyrdom of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul.  But Satan loves to desecrate whatever is holy.  Unless the leadership of the City of Monroe change their mind, the devil will succeed in that later this month.

We encourage everyone to say extra prayers for Monroe and her leaders and for all of Ouachita Parish – so we will see repentance and an end to these sorts of evils (the Akathist Hymn to the Mother of God, Softener of Evil Hearts, would be fitting for this situation), the honoring of the Holy Trinity and his saints, and the protection of the innocence of our children and the sacredness of the family.  Folks who are unhappy about these Pride events should contact Mayor Friday Ellis and ask him to cancel them (the phone number for the Mayor’s Office is (318) 329-2310).

If promoting the LGBT religion is the price that must be paid by Monroe and Ouachita Parish to have big corporations like Lumen and Amazon present here, that price is too high.  We must ask them to leave if they insist on pushing such things upon us.  The souls and bodies of our people are not for sale; our duty is to unite all of them who are willing to Christ, Who loves them and gave His life for them.  And He Who is the Creator of the cosmos from nothingness will likewise help us to provide whatever is needed for ourselves, our families, and our neighbors, as He has promised us in the Holy Gospels (St. Matthew 6:31-33), if only we will be faithful to Him and trust in Him.
