Glide Memorial United
Methodist Church
As the Glide gospel choir takes the stage, beaming in rainbow robes, everyone squeezes
closer to make room along the pew for latecomers - this diverse, 1500-plus congregation
is GLBT-friendly and warmly welcomes everyone. After Sunday celebrations, the pro-
gressive Methodist congregation keeps the inspiration coming, providing a million free
meals a year and housing for 52 formerly homeless families.
