Carnivale at Grace Cathedral on March 4th celebrated glamour and community in a unique setting. The informal gathering encouraged connections among attendees, many of whom shared experiences in journalism and media. Guests enjoyed dinner and socialization while exchanging stories and insights. Rev. Miguel Bustos highlighted the church's history during the AIDS crisis, emphasizing its role in providing support when others did not. The event exemplified the idea that churches can serve as places for community, not just solemn occasions, inviting everyone to gather and connect.
"We traded hot takes on uppity columnists, great parties, and how to write about rich people without getting blacklisted."
"Here is a community that welcomes you in regardless of spiritual background; also one that never wastes good lighting."
"Church shouldn't just be a place for solemn religious events - it's a place for community to break bread together," Bustos said.
"It turns out they held up to 35 funerals a week - a week."
