Giving thanks that Laurel White (she/her) has found a home with us at Glendale and that she officially made us our church family on Sunday!
From Laurel: “I have been in The United Methodist Church most of my life, and have been a pastor’s kid for pretty much all of it. Theology and examining the Bible’s socio-historical context has been a big part of my religious journey, but that might’ve had more to do with who my dad is as a geek rather than as a preacher.
I have been attending Glendale with my family for the past few years, but hadn’t decided to join until now as my home church in Jackson, TN has begun discussions on disaffiliation. I love Glendale’s clear, open, and accepting nature and has felt like I am allowed to fully be myself at Glendale.” Welcome home, Laurel!
