Not sure where you are or how far you are willing to travel but this is an interfaith Jewish/Christian organization/congregation: https://iffp.org/

Its not a big deal.

Catholics are Christian. The first Christians, in fact.

Oh please don’t start that fight

We are mostly irreligious. I like Halloween, thanksgiving, do Christmas lights, we have the tree and gifts and fancy meal, I also celebrate Easter by cooking.
I do church for weddings, funerals and my family does the infant baptism.
That is enough for me

similar to you, except I don't see that mentioning that Catholic are Christians is starting a fight. It's a simple fact.

Catholics were not first Christians

Embracing interfaith families and relationships was one of the subjects of the high holiday sermons at my conservative temple this year. OP this is very doable. Judaism has so many fun family holidays that really have very little to do with God. I am somewhat observant but am 100% an atheist. I see no contradiction.
