Welcome to Free Republic.....
The ECUSA use to be as elegant and beautiful as any church in the USA, but the gays took over, and the church went to the dark side. I was the senior warden of the oldest (1832) Episcopal church in west Tennessee.
Another x-Senior Warden here...Virginia Beach then. It was a beautiful church and experience...now it is all gone. I miss the “old church” ...I do not attend the new “church” (quote intended).
