Kristin,
I hope you didn't take my comment about your church being "real" as a backhanded compliment. Honestly, I really liked your church's controlled chaos. Everyone there just seemed to like, and love, each other so much.
The trouble with church-searching is that so many churches seem too perfect. Imperfectly imperfect, if that makes sense. I can think of a couple I've tried, in particular, that just seem like they have one way of worshiping, one take on all those polarizing issues that affect Christians, one set of expectations for the people who attend. In those situations, it's clear if you don't fit.
Plus, many times, people are pretending to be so perfect that they forget to be friendly and welcoming. (And even if a church is great in every other way, this last one can be a deal-breaker.)
Your church, on the other hand, doesn't claim to be perfect. I read in the bulletin that I could worship as I pleased, and several people greeted me warmly when I walked in the door. They seemed thrilled that I was visiting.
And in the flurries of activity surrounding your service, it actually felt like I could be myself and maybe find a place in your community.
