My new church

Today will be my first service at my new church. I’ve been there before, of course, several times. But this will be the first service I’m attending it as my new church. I’m going to their Good Friday service at 7:30. They have something contemplative planned, which is exactly the kind of thing I’d expect from them. It’s exactly the reason the church intrigues me. It’s not Eastern Orthodox; it’s not Catholic; it’s not Quaker; it’s not particularly trendy. It’s just a plain old, non-liturgical church from the holiness tradition. Yet they do things like Taize-style Good Friday services. In some ways they’re far outside the norm, and they’re different in ways that make me think I will feel at home there.
