15 years ago my wife and I swam the Tiber from the ELCA to the Catholic Church and have been greatly blessed ever since. For those in the ELCA or any other denominations who may be standing on the banks of the Tiber contemplating a swim of their own, I can only say "Come on in, the water's fine!"
Is it the idolatry of the Mass that blesses you so, or is it the bogus priesthood (they have nothing to offer), or maybe it's just the worship of Mary that is such a thrill for you? Surely it is not the belief in faith+works for salvation that convinces you.
Salvation comes by faith alone, through Christ alone.
If you wanted a more conservative, G_d oriented Church, you could have joined either the Lutheran Church, Missouri Synod (LCMS), or the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS)
