The 2026 Pride in the Park event (sponsored by PACE — People Acting for Change and Equality) has been rescheduled to Sunday (19 April 2026) from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM due to forecast rain and thunderstorms on Saturday (18 April 2026).
Pride in the Park will be happening at Columbia Park in Shreveport, Louisiana.
The schedule will be the same as it would have been on Saturday (11:00 AM to 3:00 PM).
This makes the scheduling a little trickier with the 11:00 AM worship service at All Souls starting at the same time — just think of it as church in two locations.

Join us to celebrate this season of rebirth and renewal.
This worship service includes an optional but completely inclusive communion ritual requiring no specific theological belief or affiliation to participate.
An Easter egg hunt for children (Toddler – 5th Grade) will follow the service.
Our service will also be livestreamed on Facebook Live here if you cannot attend in person.
We are moving our videos from Facebook to YouTube for long-term storage and viewing — you can find our worship videos on YouTube here.
State-level COVID data can be found on the Louisiana Department of Health’s respiratory virus dashboard web page. The most sensitive metric to follow for current COVID trends is the “Laboratory Surveillance Data” link.
Flu and RSV are both showing declines in their numbers as of 28 March 2026. COVID is maintaining low but persistent numbers as of 28 March 2026.
Masking and COVID vaccination are optional for attending in-person events at All Souls.
We encourage you to be vaccinated against COVID and to also have the most-current COVID booster shots. This provides greater protection to the individual and the church community.
Anyone who prefers wearing a mask is welcome to do so for in-person events and attending worship through livestream video is also an option where required for medical or schedule conflict reasons.
We will still have KN95 masks available in the foyer for anyone who needs one.
We continue to recommend that you stay home if you have any symptoms and that you keep up with all available vaccinations and boosters.
If you are recovering from COVID and have no symptoms, you should mask in public until you have tested negative twice in a 48 hour period.
We also ask that you go by the previous CDC guidelines of waiting at least 5 days past the onset of symptoms rather than the current 24 hour recommendation.
If you have symptoms for COVID or other respiratory illness, please stay home and take care of yourself.
Our April 2026 give-away-the-plate recipient is The Philadelphia Center.
And you can contribute to All Souls using this online resource.
We will have an Easter egg hunt this Sunday (5 April 2026) immediately after the worship service.
The hunt is for children (Toddler – 5th Grade).
Middle and High School Youth will help hide the eggs and receive a generous Easter reward for helping the Easter Bunny.
