In the spring of 2004, Chinese Christian churches rallied on 19th Avenue in San Francisco's Sunset District with signs that read "Marriage = 1 man + 1 woman."

In the fall of 2005, we formed the Network on Religion and Justice for Asian and Pacific Islander LGBT people, recognizing that there was a particular need for an LGBT and LGBT-affirming, Asian and Pacific Islander, and religious voice.

Two years later...

• We are meeting monthly as a network that includes representatives from a number of major Asian and Pacific Islander LGBT organizations, API pastors, and lay people!
• We have organized the first ever religious-contingent to march with the Gay Asian Pacific Alliance (GAPA) in the San Francisco Chinese New Year Parade!
• We have marched in the San Francisco Pride Parade and tabled at the Pride Festival!
• We have produced an award-winning documentary that has been shown internationally at film festivals and churches!
• We have facilitated numerous educational workshops on the API LGBT experience and justice in churches at San Francisco Bay Area churches and conferences!
• We have a website that includes a list of supportive LGBT pastors and congregations, sermons, and other resources!
• We have held a press conference featuring 8 LGBT-affirming Asian pastors!
• We have a listserve that includes more than 100 people!

So we decided to celebrate these accomplishments with a rockin' NRJ 2nd Anniversary Drag Party...
