Back to church

Of course it is henetha 😁. If you’re thinking of giving it another try, do as OP’s have suggested and try different ones to see if one feels the right fit for you.
Same advice for you Aprilgem. I hope you find a place to suit. 😁

I'm CofE - small village church where we're always pleased to welcome people.

I agree with the others - try several and see which you like. I suggest you put your lack of confidence to good use as a way of measuring how friendly the welcome is at whichever church you're trying. If they make you feel comfortable, put them on the list of possibles. If you feel unwelcome, don't go back! Their loss.

I sometimes get the desire to back to church. It was such an important part of my life when I was younger. But now I'm not sure what I believe in. But at least it might be a comfort. Is that a good enough reason?

Aprilgem remember the saying… the first step is the hardest? Good luck.

Thank you all for your responses, I will have a look.. it is stepping inside and a stranger to everyone. Need to be more confident.
Thanks again.

I go to a Presbyterian church but before I went to a Baptist. Shop around, go where you feel comfortable and accepted. You’ll know. I always look for bible centred churches, not keen on some of the ones that put their own ‘modern’ ideas on the congregation. They don’t last long, those ones.

Have you tried a local Catholic church? There are so many misconceptions about what happens in them, but the Chrsitmas Masses will be beautiful and probably about three to choose from in your local parish. Maybe even a Midnight Mass? That would be something special. The earlier vigil masses in the evening are usually for young families but everyone is welcome.

I'm with B9. Go to a few services and see how you feel , and how welcome you are made. The right community is out there for you.

I go regularly to the Church of Scotland it’s so welcoming I’ve lots of friendships there, why only yesterday the son of an old friend ran up to me to give me a hug how sweet was that?

I’m with you B9 exchange

Just pop into a service at each of your local churches and see how you feel. Hopefully they will all make you feel welcome, but one of them at least should make you feel as though you have 'come home'. If you feel like it, pray for guidance in choosing! I hope you feel settled very soon.
