- Clergy of the Church of the Beloved Disciple process ahead of the congregation's float during the Sixth Annual Gay Pride Day March (Gay Liberation Day) in New York City on June 29, 1975. From left to right are Fr. Leo (partially visible), Fr. John (center), and Bishop Robert Mary Clement (wearing the mitre), accompanied by unidentified acolytes and cross-bearers.
