Re: *Lurkers Only*: Now's Your Chance
Thank you, UntoHim. I needed some validation regarding the strange inconsistency of being "in the church" and yet very "out." Quite denominational, if you ask me.
I was wondering if there are any informal gatherings of ex-lc members, expecially in Ohio. Once I left, I ceased to exist, so I have not had an ounce of fellowship in over a quarter of a century, other than occasionally attending Mass at the Catholic Church, which can be a chilly experience. BTW, I really don't like to or mean to put down any church (Protestant, Catholic, lc, or any other), but I have to be honest about my personal experiences. Where is the love?
Also, in response to the lady who posted, I cannot imagine the lc experience with the added burden of being "just a sister." My heart goes out to her and the others who suffered under that regime.
