I come from a baptist and methodist background, and while I am grateful for and respectful of those traditions and for the foundation they provided me, I seemed to need something different. At St. B's, I feel I'm finally home. Sure, the service is more liturgical than what I'm used to, but there's a beauty and mystery in it. And you'll love the priests. There is a good mix of seriousness and fun, orthodoxy and charisma, young and old. You will see southern ladies in their big hats sitting next to "rock stars" in jeans and t-shirts. There are a lot of people like me, who were raised in different denominations, and a lot of people who don't all believe exactly the same things, but who agree on the basics. I love the unity and diversity of this church, and the depth and history of the denomination.
Pros: Priests, diversity, size, community, children's programs, theology
Cons: The service is a little longer than what I'm used to :)
