socioreligious chrysalis

vivificans vita

quick little update on what's up with me lately!

i've been getting quite active in one of my local episcopal parishes, and i guess i'm an anglo-catholic now! "anglo-catholic" is one of those phrases that sounds like it could possibly be the worst thing ever but in my case means i hang out with a bunch of queers with god fixations who like to feed hungry people and counteract the rise of triumphalism and nationalism in american christianity, and also our liturgy and spaces of worship are really pretty, and we have a lesbian priest and like a third of the participants in the altar liturgy are trans

i am exceedingly offline now, i've been keeping a routine of daily prayer, and shockingly, my mental health is as good as it's maybe ever been despite all the reasons out there for it to be awful. i feel plenty of fear, but i'm not afraid, if that makes sense.

i'm probably not gonna write here much anymore, if ever, mostly cause i have lots of irl outlets to have engaging conversations about religion and spirituality and shit and also because idk how many people who haven't explicitly opted into it would care at all about anglican theology lmao. idk maybe i can be swayed! i don't know where my path is taking me, only that i feel better than ever about the direction it's pointing.

may your lives overflow with love (and please play/read misericorde if you want to feel bad (positive) in a lesbian catholic way, it's been utterly consuming me). pax vobis
