I left my Catholic Church in NY state in 2011 for being so liberal. We had an organist who cross dressed and came to communion in high heels and a feather boa. I didn’t leave right away, but my antenna went up when we ended up with a social justice committee. Our priest said prayers for global warming and got flyers to protect illegal aliens. That was the final straw.
In the end I moved to the Bible Belt here in southern NC. I started taking a bible study class in my community. I wanted to go to a church and considered going to a Baptist church. But in the end was invited to our local Catholic Church by a parishioner to try it out.
After attending a few sessions I was very surprised and happy to find out the church was conservative and very inviting. Now I love this small church. Everyone knows everyone else and we all mentor to one another. I joined the choir and our very active women’s group. We also have a very strong Knights of Columbus group for our men and there is an active prison visitation ministry. Our little church has won many accolades for all of our ministries.

I am happy for you. Christianity has taken such a hit from liberalism during my lifetime.
In the last 20 years the best preacher I heard was a Lutheran in a small town during a funeral of my wife's friend.
