UCC announced the decision in a press release, stating that it would become the first religious denomination to sponsor the games, which marks its ninth ceremony this year.

Nobbe praised the decision in the denomination's press release.
“We're so appreciative to have the backing of United Church of Christ and other members of the faith community. UCC's sponsorship of the 2014 Gay Games on a national level amplifies their strong commitment to inclusion on and off the playing fields. Our partnership serves to illustrate the open and affirming atmosphere participants will experience when visiting Cleveland and Akron.” HP

 
WHY?...to the United Church of Christ....WHY would they put their name into such an event?

Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts,
to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Romans 1:24
 ...but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers,
having itching ears;
2 Timothy 4:3
