43. I visited an Episcopalian church a few times...

I was impressed with how welcoming they were... and the space smelled of my circle room! (which made me feel at home). I also love the fact they've retained the beauty and important of ritual. People can find some peace and catharsis through ritual. It doesn't even have to be an overtly religious ritual, either... and minimally spiritual. The rhythms, movements, and gestures in a ritual are comforting by themselves.

Gotta tell ya though... I visited this Episcopalian church after having gone to church with my sister for a month of Sundays... and hers was Catholic! I had the privilege of seeing what I considered both ends of the candle side by side.
