The Signs

"Large Gothic Revival church on an urban street corner. Two banners mounted on the primary facade flanking the main entrance. Left banner: rainbow-striped with text listing identity categories — "love your neighbor who doesn't think like you / love like you / people like you / only like you / Love your neighbor. No exceptions." United Methodist Church of New Brunswick identification and website visible at bottom. Right banner: red and white, reads "[Redacted] Welcomes You! Sunday Worship at 11AM." Both banners fully visible from the public sidewalk. Primary entrance doors are red, recessed under Gothic arches."

"Two large vertical banners mounted on a freestanding display structure at the main entrance to the property, visible from the driveway. Left banner: "LOVE GOD'S CREATION" with rainbow imagery and nature photographs. Right banner: "LOVE GOD'S PEOPLE" with rainbow imagery and stylized heart motifs. A smaller sign is posted at the secondary building entrance in the background — text not legible from this distance. Street-facing signage at the front of the property shows standard church identification only. Rainbow imagery on entrance banners is visible to anyone entering the driveway but not to a passing motorist on the street."
