“I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for being open to homosexuality because it is right in God’s eyes. You do not know the extreme pleasure that I feel for a Christian organization that supports people such as myself. Thank you so much and God Bless”

“I visited Cathedral of Hope last night, and great enjoyed the service.  I appreciate the liturgical elements, and the friendly spirit of the church.  I spoke with Darla (?) about the church for a good while, and had a chance to meet Scott as well.  I’ve been looking for a gay-friendly church in OKC with liturgical elements.  I look forward to more services at COH.”

“At this point in my life, I seem to be floating around religiously, trying to hold on to my sanity. I just don’t know what to believe or think really, and I have had a strong desire, for some time now, to attend your church. I love what I see on the Internet, and, well, I’m looking for a home, one grounded in religious conviction, strong morals, acceptance, and understanding. I am so excited about the first day that I will be able to attend your service. I look forward to meeting you and the members of God’s church. You give me HOPE. ”

“For 25 years I did not darken the door of a church, other than for someone’s wedding or such. Thank you for a service that gave me a huge blessing. ”

“Last Sunday I attended your service. It was beautiful. The singing was very enlightening. Also, the fellowship afterwards gave me a realization that there are many other gay Christians. Being gay myself, I have always felt guilty about what God has made me. I find true hope in your community. ”

“I want you to know I felt very welcome at COH – the people were friendly and welcoming and I appreciate that. I really enjoyed the service and felt God’s presence… I live in Columbia Missouri and have been so deeply moved by what the two COH churches have done for the gay community and I feel very moved to try and get something like that here.”

“Please keep spreading your message of Hope to those who need it.”

“I have visited your church [web] site and I am so pleased to know that congregations like your exist. Tears literally welled in my eyes as I whispered ‘Thank God. Somebody gets it.’ I am so tired of the fear, hate, and judgement being pushed down our throats through religion. Thank you for showing people there IS a better way – a loving way.”
