A friend of mine went through some really bad times and nearly did not survive. She surprised me when she told me that she had joined an American Baptist Congregation. I had always thought of Baptists as hardline rightwing etc. They are not. As has already been said, each church is a little different. My friend cherishes the support she has found within her church. Go. Maybe you will find the same.
And congratulations on taking the first steps towards getting on with your life. One day at a time.
