5 /5 Zach Mayo-Frey: My partner and I arrived at First Christian Church after a couple years of deconstructing our faith and in the middle of some pretty traumatic times for us. We had seen online that FCC was affirming of LGBTQIA+ individuals and families and thought we’d give “the Church”, as a whole, one final go.
I still feel to this day, almost a year and a half later, that God led us to this community. We and our children alike are excited to get up on Sunday mornings and get over to see our “chosen family” at church. Not only have we made some of our best friends within these four walls, but we’ve been given the opportunity to take the space and time needed to reconstruct our faith alongside each of them. Recently, we were both asked if we would consider serving in leadership roles within the church…this wasn’t something we ever thought we’d have the chance to do after coming out to the world.
In summary, if you’re looking for a group of people that you’re able to be completely yourself with while learning together how to best live and love like Jesus; we can’t wait to meet you! This is the first church I’ve truly felt compelled to invite people to every time I make a new friend - no matter where they come from. :)
