LGBT Commuity network started as a not-for-profit organization under the name of Fresno Pride in 2000. It was started because of the few organizations that existed none were publicly accessible. We wanted to be available and make the community’s events and resources available to all online. We believe that without our existence a sense of community and connectedness would still be absent in the area. Being a stable and accessible organization for over twenty years has allowed us to serve countless community members and also share a sense of normalcy that youth look up to as they may be struggling with their sexuality and gender expression.nnOur organization is unique in that it is the only organization that specifically operates throughout multiple cities in California’s most conservative areas.nnOur original mission was only to inform and educate on LGBT+ issues and events related to the Fresno area. Our mission has expanded over the years to include additional cities and also offering services/programs.

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! We want to welcome you to Our Saviour’s. We are a church of the Evangelical Lutheran Church ELCA and a founding member of Faith in Community FIC which is part of People Improving Community through Organizing PICO. We are also a Reconciling in Christ Congregation RIC a designation given to Lutheran Churches that affirm and welcome the LGBTQ community. Whether LGBTQ or Straight we believe that God created all of us to be who we are and not what societies religious institutions or churches believe we should be nThe “DNA” of Our Saviour’s is best summed up in the words of Francis of Assisi “At all times proclaim the Gospel if necessary use words.” These words of St. Francis are reflected in our two mottos “Where the Son always shines!” and “We live our PRIDE in Love!” With God’s help we are committed to maintaining a community of faith where the Son always does shine through our witness to God’s love in word and action — where we are light to each other to the community around us and to the city of Fresno nGod has blessed Our Saviour’s greatly to be a blessing to others and we do pray that we are a blessing to all nMay the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ the Love of God and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you now and always!

Arguably the largest event of the year and certainly one requiring year-long preparations is our Fresno Rainbow Pride. Community Link formally took over organizing the Fresno GLBT Pride Parade and Festival in 2003. The renamed committee Fresno Rainbow Pride has worked hard on bringing back the excitement and integrity of this very important cultural event. Community Link was a major player in founding GLBT Pride in 1991 and during that first year 8 out of the 12 organizers were Community Link Board members. Fresno Rainbow Pride has since grown into a regional event drawing people from all over the Valley to celebrate the contributions of the GLBT community. Expecting over 3000 people to attend each year’s GLBT Pride this is the largest one-day GLBT event in the Valley.
