I recently found this blog while trying to locate someone I knew from GCC. I have found this blog to be somewhat healing.

I attended GCC from 1982-1987. I was asked to leave in 1987 because I was not “doing” what one of the leaders said they wanted me to do. It was extremely painful for a few years, missing friends and the fellowship, but I was also relieved. I remember feeling the going to church was an outlet for stress relief and for me it was stressful.

Welcome to de-comm, Reba. If you feel comfortable sharing your story there are many here who would be very interested in hearing it. If not, that’s fine too.

Reba,

Welcome. It seems we overlapped. I was in GCx 1980-1985. I ditto what puff said.
