Stan Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I was born and raised in upstate New York. I have lived in Texas, Alabama, and Canada. For the last 17 years I have lived in Minnesota. I was raised a Roman Catholic and I briefly studied in a seminary. After leaving the seminary I was quickly drafted into the military, which began my wandering through secular life for the next four plus decades with my wife of forty-three years. I have never found a real religious home, but recently I have realized that I can spiritually be called a Progressive Christian. Now I am searching for a local progressive Christian church -- in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area -- to grow in. Does anyone have a church to recommend to me?

BillM Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Welcome, Stan! Glad you found us! I was born and raised in Elmira. Moved to Texas in '79 though. NY was too cold for me! Sorry, but I can't recommend a church in the area you're in. Perhaps someone else here might know. But welcome to the forum! Jump in wherever you'd like.

Yvonne Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 A big welcome from a fellow Midwesterner (Iowa to be exact). I don't know of a PC church in your area, though. Glad you're here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
