Christ Church Episcopal Parish

I’ve not been to church in a long time. Not regularly for 7 years or so. So when it was time to start back up, we decided to go somewhere we knew– or did many years ago. I never attended this church, but was involved with the diocese youth when I was a teen.
This is a typical Episcopal parish. Active community outreach, very small young congregation group (my age, 30’s), mostly older folks in their 60’s or 70’s. I think this is the trend in the church as a whole at this point… The Episcopal youth following in Oregon isn’t what it used to be, despite the liberal church views which drew me back. This particular congregation is fairly conservative, though not so much as to break off as Anglican. The Sunday school going middle school youth is TINY, which is a bummer for my middle schooler. But they do fun things. And the younger kids are quite numerous. So maybe just the middle/​high school kids don’t attend sunday school.
Currently, the parish is looking for a new priest, so there is an interim priest. I won’t rate based on him as he will be irrelevant in a few months. Services are VERY traditional and predictable, varying almost not at all from week to week.
The facilities are nice and well-​maintained. There is a nice memorial garden out front, plenty of space in the large parish hall, and the chapel is beautiful– lined with large stained-​glass and a pipe organ at the front. The bell choir is a highlight, I love when they perform.
We’ve been going regularly all lent-​long and intend to keep on. I think we’ve found our new home for the foreseeable future.
