James (he/him) and Jason (he/him) made it official on their one year of being at Glendale by officially joining our church family in worship! Welcome home, you two!

From James and Jason: “We had many discussions about wanting to find a church home where we could be ourselves. We wanted a church wedding, but had to get married in the little chapel that was off Briley Parkway because we had no church home.

Over the last few years, we attended several churches but never found “the one”. We thought we had found our church and attended for almost a year, and while we loved the sermons, we never felt truly welcomed. We made a list of churches to check out with Glendale being one of them. On the first Sunday of their restarted search, we were supposed to come to Glendale, but we got our notes mixed up and we ended up at a different church. The next Sunday, on August 27, 2023, we made sure we got the right information and we attended Glendale for the first time. We never checked out any other of the churches left on the list. It felt like we finally found the church home we had been hoping for at Glendale.

After seeing people join Glendale early on, we knew we would also, but we wanted to wait to mark the one year anniversary of finding our new church family to do so. We are thankful for the connections we have already made and look forward to growing more here at Glendale.”
