I have always wanted to visit the First Orthodox Presbyterian Church. Pastor McIlhenny's testimony is a powerful one.

Pastor McIlhenney wrote a book entitled "When the Wicked Seize the City." I couldn't find a link to buy the book, but here is an article from the Aug/Sept 2004 issue of New Horizons magazine (a magazine of the OPC) briefly mentioning the book and some of what Pastor McIlhenney has gone through: http://www.opc.org/new_horizons/NH04/08c.html |

This has been Chuck's consistent message over the years in his efforts to reach the city of San Francisco for Christ. He repeatedly tells others that homosexuality is not the unpardonable sin. As sinful as such behavior and attitudes are, homosexuals are not beyond the supernatural power of God to bring them to saving faith in Jesus Christ. The message to homosexuals in San Francisco from the McIlhennys has always been the same: You must repent of your sinful ways and turn to Christ for the forgiveness of sins.

You know, I just realized you asked for something in the San Francisco area. As highly as I recommend First OPC, if you are not in San Francisco proper, it could be quite a drive to get there. Where in the Bay Area, specifically, are you looking?

http://www.opc.org/new_horizons/NH04/08c.html | That's the testimony I had in mind. I found the book for sale at abebooks.com for $1.00. It's well worth it!  |
