or what they consider services. It isn't your typical church or your typical services. I have a friend who belongs to this church, and that was the only reason I went. I have only been there for one actual service, and the other times were for talks on environmental issues, a concert by a member who plays old blues guitar, or walks in the woods...although even the woods was treated as a spiritual place for them.

It is very inclusive of all people, but I still had the sense of it being too "spiritual" for me. I suppose that they have to have something to appeal to people so they will feel there is a reason to attend, but I have no desire for any moving experiences. I do like the people who are members, since it does take a special person to choose this fellowship. It is a great place to meet people who are nonjudgmental and open to all.
