  It's always weird to review a church, but I'll use this space to provide some quick takes. Church is extremely personal so find one that works dot you, based on theology, style, size, and community.
  
  This Anglican Episcopal church has a good deal in common with a Catholic church. There are formal traditions like communion, recitations, and responses.
  
  The overall mood is quiet and steady. The music is traditional. There's no rock bands or fired-up preachers. Instead you have people who talk slower. The preacher who took the pulpit to deliver the sermon spoke in a measured manner. While it has a few interesting points it wasn't particularly engaging. I didn't feel especially moved, and there wasn't a strong sense of contemplation.
  
  There is a general sense of equality in this environment. Chairs are arranged in a circular pattern around the lectern.
  
  Unfortunately the community on a Sunday morning was very small. Yes, it was rainy, but that doesn't mean everyone stays at home. Because there were so few people, there was less energy, less noise, less vitality. It felt empty, given the size of the building. And most people (myself included) sat apart, impeding socialization.
  
  The church building is well-kept and fairly bright.
  
  I didn't find the service particularly compelling, as the music, sermon and overall culture didn't speak to me. If you want something mellow and not particularly contemplative this church would make more sense.
