Sacred Heart
Jun. 15th, 2009 07:44 pmI'm sad to see Sacred Heart in Gloversville being closed. That was the church I attended in the 1990s when I was trying to be received into the Roman Catholic Church. (I am ineligible because I'm married to someone who was previously divorced before marrying me - and getting a Roman Catholic church annulment of a marriage between two Jews, my husband and his ex-wife, isn't a very practical possibility.)
It is a beautiful church, and it was one of only two churches where I have ever really felt comfortable and at home. The other, of course, was Fulmont, and that didn't work out either. I enjoy Northway, but it has always been too far away for me to become an active member of that church community.
I guess I'll probably always be a wanderer without a church home, and maybe that's just part of who I'm supposed to be, as CatEcumen the Ecumenical Cat.
