[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in an interfaith household and almost became Catholic as an adult (one of my parents was) but a child abuse scandal broke out and dissuaded me. (I have kids). My husband and I used to an attend an Episcopal church (he grew up Episcopalian) and I liked that the services were in many ways like Catholic services, but it became extremely political and wasn't right for us. There was a day when they prayed for harm to come to a certain lawmaker and it was just bizarre. We switched to an Anglican church and while the substance is better (actually focusing on the Bible and not politics) the services are much less traditional and more evangelical (contemporary music, raising hands toward people when praying for them) and it feels... wrong. Maybe it's just not what I'm used to. Someone mentioned that there are more "high church" / traditional Anglican churches out there we should consider and another person suggested we check out a Presbyterian church. Anyway...

Is there a church that:
1. Doesn't focus on politics, or if they must, is moderate or center-right
2. Has more traditional services

The people at St. Columba's tend to be liberal, but I've never heard liberal politics discussed during a sermon.  And the services are traditional.[/quote]
