A gay club is making headlines in Salt Lake City for a promotion meant to take advantage of the LDS General Conference in town over the weekend, KUTV reports.

The club erected a muscular Moroni statue on its roof, posted photos of its staff as missionary “Elders” and gave them similar nametags. It is also offering liquor specials such a “Sacrament shots”, “Baptism by Fireball”, and “Garment Droppers” and is offering free entry to those wearing “garments, missionary nametags, or their missionary suit.”

The stunt has offended at least one patron who says she’ll “think twice” about going back.

An LDS Church released a statement about the promotion:

“In recent years many people in our community, including religious leaders and representatives of the LGBT community have worked hard to create greater understanding and develop more sensitivity and good will toward each other. It is sad to see events like this – deliberately designed to offend and alienate – given any kind of attention.”

Watch, AFTER THE JUMP…
