Lots of younger energetic people intermixed with a few older people. We sat next to a couple in their 70s and were welcomed with hugs, handshakes and plenty of cheerfulness. The older lady next to us gave us a intro through narrative during the service which was nice. The pastor is young and fiery. I like that he uses a comedy approach and can elicit laughter to make a point. Church, in my humble opinion, should be a welcoming environment that uplifts your soul while gently reminding us all that we are responsible for our own decisions, but there is guidance available to those in need. The fire and brimstone approach is a fear tactic to scare people into submission... this pastor has no need for that because he is an excellent orator and can relate to those in his flock. He seems to be one of Milwaukee's best and brightest. The city is lucky to have this family leading the way. We also used the child care and greatly appreciated the extra attention they gave to be security focused and friendly at the same time. We now consider this our home Church.

I'm not Catholic, I come to humor my Chief of Staff, I'm sure it won't affect my reincarnation one way or another, and she thinks maybe this way I won't go to Heck when I pass on. Hence, my criteria here aren't cosmological or theological, only aesthetic, and this is a remarkable and ornate cathedral that's peaceful and humbling to sit in. I like to come early and leave late to experience the talented organist, the choir is professional quality, and on holidays they bring on a chamber brass ensemble. The one negative is the scary central hanging Jesus, with abstract accentuated crown of thorns and stigmata, it's not a friendly Jesus.

Our very first time going- leaving very sad and heavy. The entire service (if you could call it that) was about expanding, getting more followers, pushing other friends and family to focus on putting money into the church. There was no celebration of God, no respect to thee scripture except manipulating the words of God as a way to draw money from people's pockets. I am SO sad. I feel deep sorrow and am appalled. I grew up in a cult and have done a lot of treatment and therapy and guidance from God in the church- and this feels exactly like the cult I grew up in. This is not a safe space of the Lord.

All baptized Christians are welcome at the communion rail. The parishioners are very friendly, and it's a come-as-you-are kind of place, even though the service is traditional and solemn. I leave feeling calm and purified. Additionally, the church is really beautiful inside. It has a wonderful organ! Only wrinkle--be sure to note the service times. Between Memorial Day and Labor Day there is only one Sunday service--at 9 am. The rest of the year, it's 8 and 10 am for the Sunday Eucharist.

Today was a special event at the cathedral, the annual Kirkin' o' th' Tartans, a celebration of…read moreScottish heritage and culture. The origins of the kirking are the stuff of legend, and like most legends, it is probably based in some fact but where the fact leaves off and the fantasy starts has been lost to history. First of all, what does it mean? The Scottish Gaelic word, "kirk" means church, and in this context, "kirk" means "blessing." Tartans are the traditional plaid emblems of Scottish clans, woven into (typically) wool cloth. According to legend, in the mid-18th Century, the British rulers took revenge on Scotland in retaliation for a failed attempt to regain Scottish independence. The wearing of tartans, kilts and any highlanded symbols was forbidden. Legend says Highlanders wore tartans under their garments, in defiance of the law, with their tartans blessed in church. 46 years later, the law was rescinded and the wearin' of the tartans returned. The problem is that no real history of the secret wearin' o' the tartans is known in Scotland. So this tradition may be a uniquely American tradition, going back to World War II. Either way, the Kirkin' o' th' Tartans takes place in churches all across the county on April 6 each year. Sometimes it's celebrated on Reformation Sunday the last Sunday in October, sometimes on St. Andrew's Day (St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland) on November 30, or, as in Milwaukee, on Tartan Day on April 6. At the kirking of the tartans, there is lots of bagpipe music, Scottish dancing, remembrance of those who left us in the prior year, the reading of the 23rd Psalm (with a Gaelic accent) and, of course, the blessing of the tartans. The joint bagpipe/pipe organ rendition of "Amazing Grace" could bring a tear to your eye, and it was the first time I've ever heard a pipe organ almost overpowered. Now I'm looking forward to the Highland Games, but I'm marking my calendar for April 6, 2015.
