LOOKING FOR A SPIRITUAL COMMUNITY WHICH EMBRACES GLBT PEOPLE? Consider
High Country United Church at 8233 Hwy 421-N, Vilas, about 7 miles northwest
of Boone. Gay/straight membership is 40/60%. High Country United Church
was established to create a safe, loving environment, to discover and
cultivate spiritual growth, and to nurture community by reflecting and
celebrating love. The church spreads the message of God's extravagant
welcome, reaching out especially to those who have felt there is no room
for them within the church - the excluded and alienated, the spiritually
homeless, the questioning. All persons are welcomed and celebrated, without
regard to race, social status, religious belief/practice or lack thereof,
gender, physical condition/appearance, or sexual orientation. Worship
starts at 11:00 a.m., Sundays. Dress is very casual.
