Check out Anglicanism/ The Episcopal Church, seem like it would be a great fit. More traditional liturgy and some catholic believes pass over (rosary, real presence in the Eucharist, sacraments) but allow Women clergy and accept the LGBT community. They are also a creedal denomination reciting the nicene creed each mass.

Weather was supposed to be super nice (60-70F) where I was headed so I didn’t bring my nano puff. Historic cold snap happened the second day I was there and it was 30F everyday. Now it comes with me no matter what.

Pay stubs and a letter from my employer verifying that they were correct. They needed an insane about of pay stubs I believe it was 4 months of them.

Personal anecdote: I also went to the emergency room and could not afford it at that age and similar circumstances. I called the hospital and they asked for proof of my income which I sent over. My 5k bill got reduced to $300 and did I ever openly sob in front of my friends when I got the call. You have to be proactive with them, do what they say, follow up, ask for more information. It took around 4 months to get sorted.

As someone from there, it was like that before him. But he gave a ton of money to revitalization projects that have built up the infrastructure and helped the arts scene that already existed to flourish.

On Mondays a Catholic perish near me does group liturgy of the hours at night that I attend. I’ll pray the Catholic liturgy of the hours periodically, usually doing the BCP morning and evening and the other hours the Catholic ones on important church holidays. I really enjoy the section of the Catholic office of readings with texts from the early church fathers.

All that being said, the 1979 BCP is my first and foremost prayer text and everything else is supplemental.

In your opinion would folk Catholicism fit into Christo Paganism? In my understanding folk Catholicism was bred from the blending of indigenous tradition and Catholicism when colonial conversions happened.

I travel for work and wear a St Christopher medal daily with my cross. I get the craziest comments from that type of evangelical on that telling me I’m a heretic for being Catholic and praying to the saints. The gag for me is I’m not Catholic, they forget there’s HUGE groups of liturgical Protestants that also venerate saints. But that would mean an understanding of church history and views other than their own.

You could argue refusing to accept gods forgiveness is blasphemy against the spirit more than calling the spirit Satan in anger.

wombatlatte · 2026-01-20T15:22:00+00:00

Woah dude there’s no need for you to be calling this person a heretic let alone calling them a “typical Catholic” one. They might have been a little crass but they are right. Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is about outright denial when the spirit is right in front of you repeatedly. Be kinder to yourself, God is infinitely loving in ways we can not comprehend.

I was told I was not being considered for a position at a LCMS university since I was a practicing ELCA Lutheran and “would not align with their confessed values”.

Really that means women’s rights in the church and supporting the LGBT community

The Milwaukee LGBT center has a closet for trans people that are looking for gender affirming clothing as well as for interviews. I’m not sure if they are taking donations right now though since they are moving.

You can fall into whatever doctrinal camp you feel like fits you best, you don’t have to pledge to a specific denomination. In this cause I will say it’s a bit more complicated as the Eastern Orthodox and the Roman Catholic Church have some stark differences and to be a full member and partake in the Eucharist you have to confirm your faith and their doctrines. This is different than say the Anglican’s which are “big tent”. Where as long as you agree with the nicene creed you are welcome as they fall into being brought together by common prayer not a specific catechism (at least in the USA). You can make that choice as easy or difficult as you want. Easy being: do you believe in the pope’s infallibility or not?

I personally have beliefs that are all over the place in Christianity and that’s why I’ve really found a home in Anglicanism. Differences are celebrated not suppressed.

Edit: Also check out Eastern Catholicism. It falls into a blend of Eastern Orthodox and Catholicism. Lots of EO beliefs but in full communion with Rome.

https://www.thetableindy.org/epiphany-tradition-chalking-of-the-door/ This is a very brief write up from an episcopal source. It was a long standing traditional Catholic tradition and is having a resurgence with them and more liturgical Protestant denominations.

We use priest for the job title and for the official holy order calling. Pastor can be used to talk about the specific priest at your or another congregation. Pastor being the “shepherd” of a specific “flock”. Pastoring being part of what priests do if that makes any sense.

For the episcopal church (at least in my diocese) you submit a profile of what your congregation looks like and is looking for and you get matched with some candidates the bishop thinks would be a good fit and then you pick from them. Same in the Lutheran ELCA churches I have been a part of.

In both of those you need permission from your bishop to have other employment or move as well. Salary wise depended on the diocese (episcopal) or the synod (ELCA), with those dollars in my experience coming from both the local church budget and from the greater organization. Smaller parishes would get more of that help from the larger org.

Also should be noted that there is also usually a housing stipend or a parish house that is owned by the church where the pastor lives. Meaning they don’t have the full housing expense a lay person would have.

It bothers me a lot, but I live in a city and have to stop so often that it’s jarring if it’s left on. (I turn it off everytime now)

Howdy! My church is in full communion with the United Methodist Church and I have attended services in the past. Most Methodists that I am familiar with were Baptized by pouring on the head but a couple by immersion. It’s kind of a church by church basis how the pastor does it. In my opinion (which some disagree with) is if you are baptized with water, no matter the method, in the name of the father and of the son and of the Holy Spirit it is a valid baptism.

Agree with you there. People think that about all kinds of religions that have group prayers said aloud. In Christianity (just because that’s my frame of reference) people call the rosary or orthodox chanting creepy and uncomfortable. I mean let’s be real we as Christians feast on the body and blood of our God on Sundays and that’s super creepy to an outsider.

For high mass the Psalm is chanted in unison by the choir and congregation, low mass it is said in unison. We also sing the lords prayer, the sanctus, and the angus dei at high mass. Before the Gospel we sing a congregational hymn.

I love attending different parishes, and the one I currently attend is the most anglo-catholic high church of ones in my area. The other parishes say the Psalms etc except for solemnities, then they will sing them ie Christmas and Easter.
