I am a Sociology Professor....for six years, I took students from Huntingdon College in Montgomery, Alabama to work for eight days at Glide. Cecil Williams said I was the first person to bring students to volunteer at Glide. It proved to be a transformational experience for me and many of the students. The students each got two hours credit for volunteering. We sat in crack cocaine recovery sessions, helped feed the homeless, passed out condoms to prostitutes and participated in AIDS prevention programs. Cecil has created a place
Glide is the most spiritually loving, accepting place I have ever visited. Glide is my favorite church because it practices what other only preach......Christianity in motion. Next time you ae in San Francisco, be sure to go to a Sunday Morning Celebration there.....at 9 or 11am. You will remember it for the rest of your life.
