African-American churches have often struggled with the idea of gay Christians. Yet Pillar of Love, now four years old, offers a culturally authentic spiritual experience and is now moving to a new home in the Chicago GLBT community's Center on Halsted.
I would like to see more activity on the South and West sides of Chicago. Still, a successful GLBT black church is something to be thankful for, and I offer praise to God for the leadership of the Reverend Phyllis V. Pennese and the rest of the staff and congregation of Pillar of Love.
