Read moreHorrible place and rector, Willard, in my opinion. In two years they shut down the 25 year old homeless feeding program, suspended the youth program for a year, didn't let kids go on a mission trip, now view confirmation classes as optional, and are really a closed minded cult. The rector actually once said he doesn't answer theological questions from members. Too many decent Episcopal Churches in the Diocese to fool with this one especially if...
