That's a really good idea! Getting out of my comfort zone would probably be the best move, even if I am nervous! Meetup is a wonderful idea! I've actually tried touse it before, though most events were either online or just not in my area, but I'll try it again, and maybe I could go searching...

I'm trying to move out because my current home life is incredibly unstable and bad for me. My mother and stepfather, who I live with, are addicted to drugs, fight and break things constantly, and are generally unstable emotionally. My mother actually attempted suicide while I was in the house...

I feel so lonely all the time. I don't have any friends, the only times I see and interact with people who aren't my family are when I'm at work or church. After work and after church, I'm just alone. It feels like it's all-consuming, I have no idea how to really end it. There's nothing to get...

Thank you! You're right, I'm sure they wouldn't mind an extra pair of hands. And that's a good idea, about letting them know I attend! I think I was mostly worried that, since many parishioners haven't met me, it'd be a sort of "who are you" type of thing, so that, I think, would help! Thank you...

Welcome! It's nice to meet you, Filippus! I hope you enjoy your time on CF! :blush:

Hi, there! So, I recently began attending an Episcopal Church. They have opportunities to volunteer in various ways, such as helping at a soup kitchen, growing and taking care of vegetables in a Church garden for a food pantry, and financially supporting a local Christian homeless shelter. I've...

Hi, Michealaj. It's nice to meet you. I just want to say that, while I don't know your specific struggles, I can relate to guilt relating to psychosis. I have schizoaffective disorder, depressive type, and I've sinned and behaved horribly in my psychosis. But, one of the most important things to...

I'm currently reading The Hellbound Heart by Clive Barker! I ended up finishing this month's book, Dracula, way early, so it's a nice little breather between that and February's book! Though, I don't know how long it'll last as a breather, since it's very short! I honestly loved Hellraiser as a...

Thank you all for the replies! This has been very enlightening, thank you! Nothing in the Episcopal Church would have me up and leave immediately, at least for a little while! I do agree with them in certain aspects (I'm very thankful they practice open communion), but I don't in others. And...

So, I've started attending an Episcopal Church! It's the only church in my area that is physically close to where I live, has early in-person services, and has a good amount of outreach and opportunities to volunteer. The reason I go here, and actually want to stay, is not only because it's the...

Hello, there! I'm 19 years old, and from New York, USA! I wasn't raised Christian at all, but a couple months ago, I've accepted Christ as my Lord and Savior! However, unfortunately, my faith was very shallow, I don't know much, and haven't acted like a Christian. I don't want to be like that...
