SUMMARY: Video from the Church of the Savior shows a man stealing the Pride flag from their premises. Despite multiple thefts, the church continues to support the LGBTQ+ community. The flag symbolizes inclusivity, welcoming all sexual and gender identities. Reverend Mark Dow shared that a mounting kit and tracking device were recently added to the $150 flag. It was stolen twice even with the tracker, and police recovered it. One suspect claimed it was a dare, while another cited religious beliefs. Reverend Dow expressed sadness and anger over the thefts, emphasizing the contradiction with the biblical commandment against stealing.
