How unfair to judge any group of people by one contact. One of the highlights of my annual visits to Palm Desert is worshipping on Sundays and other days of the week at St Margaret's, including some holiday services.
The people are warm as is the church atmosphere itself, and I truly find the Lord in the service, the glorious music and the beautiful mountain light which streams in. I would encourage anyone who has never been in a church to make this their first experience. One of my friends has, and she returns regularly by herself.
