we'd had it more often. But I don't attend Episcopal services with my friend as she's gone over to another church after her diocese closed hers.

It seemed to have a lot of ritual I was not acquainted with and honestly I'm too old to learn all that they do there. It just felt 'off' to me.

Because I had no memories of such things as a child. There was no sense of continuity for me. I'm a bit out of everything at this juncture.

I seem to remember you saying taht you were brought up Catholic as a child and went into Episcopal in your adulthood. That is important for keeping that feeling of belonging and peacefulness you exhibit here.
