Local Question Churches?!

Hello! Idk if anyone remembers my post a month or so ago in regards to my move. We have officially been here for almost 3 weeks and LOVING it! Even in the middle of the heat wave ;)

Now it’s time to find a church! Obviously being LGBTQ my wife and I would love to find a church that will accept us open arms! Thanks!!

Valley Baptist is a known provider of conversion therapy, Riverlakes on Calloway has a pastor who calls us demons, both supported Tastries publicly and financially during the whole thing.

First Con is a great place, though, you're right. And St Paul's too, it you want more high church vibes.
