Hello everyone,
I, along with my family, recently came back “home” to the N.O. Church after never really embracing the faith when a child and drinking deeply of the world. After attending mass there for a few months and diving into online sermons and such, I came across the MHFM material. Although I do appreciate a lot of what they say and what I learned, it has been such a relief to find this forum and read other perspectives on what’s going on and what the truth is.
We have been doing what MHFM recommends and staying home but are really wanting to attend mass. We are on the coast in east central Florida (Sanford is about an hour away). I suppose we could go to Orlando too but that is a bit far. Can anyone recommend a good church? We’re so new to this and still learning, so we don’t know who is valid, who to stay away from, if SSPX is an option or not, etc. Any info will be appreciated.
Also, we took the MHFM advice on how to find a valid confessor (a N.O. Priest ordained before June 18, 1968 ). We found one ordained on June 16, 1968. Was this valid advice/necessary?
Any input, advice, article/book/ video recommendations will be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Oh, and out of curiosity, if it was possible for us to move, where would be the best place in the states in terms of church and community.
