  Truly wonderful church and community with so much of God's love. I love the people there and their love for Christ and others is incredibly apparent!

  Sort of an interesting religion. If you fit into the culture, it can bring a great sense of community. The structure is setup such that if you are an active member of the community, they will be there to help you when you are ill, need to move, or a person to talk to. Tribalism is employed in much of the dogma, which creates a narrative where if one doesn't agree with doctrine, or finds the truth claims to be false, leaving the tribe creates an end to most "friendships." It can be painful to follow truth, and it's harder when the members are taught to shun those who leave. The shunning is real, but not nearly as drastic as one might find among the Scientologists or Jehova's Witnesses. Lastly, the truth claims don't align with reality or history. There's constant whitewashing of history to deal with this. The doctrine will change to reflect societies reflection of the world, but it is always behind the times, always reacting never predicting. The leaders are never ahead of the curve, on the side of right. African-Americans, for example, were not allowed to be exalted in the theistic teachings until well after the USA had shifted its stance on equality. We find a similar shift happening with regard to the homosexual stance. This church is not a safe-space for any LGBTQ, and if you don't know where your children fit on that spectrum, I'd advice not bringing them here to hear the less-than loving dogma.

  Very unique when it comes to LDS chapels. I love attending church here when I go back to visit my family.
