Apart from attendance at a memorial service for a friend who was a parishioner of St. Columba’s some years ago, I first attended St. Columba’s in the late spring of 2018, following a difficult period earlier in the year, when I had been hospitalized for many nights. I hale from Nova Scotia, grew up in Toronto, and being brought up as an Anglican, it was natural for me to join you lot when I moved to the United States some four decades ago. I had sporadically attended a number of churches in the area before coming to St. C’s. I was undoubtedly attracted to the ritual, music and language of the church, but I must confess, had become pretty skeptical about Christianity’s basic doctrines.
