That is so true. My wife and I actually were church shopping as we still believe/enjoy going. We finally joined a parish after going to quite a few multiple times, took over a year. It took us longer than we thought to find a place where we felt comfortable in.
We joined a marriage group too at the new parish. Had our December Christmas party last Friday with the group at one of the couples home. I believe there were 18 couples for the party. Had a great time even with both of us working long days. We both told each other we should of started looking earlier then we did for our new parish home.
