Your words give me such joy, thank you, thank you! I'm Christian by birth and upbringing and a Lutheran pastor to boot and finding Judaism a vital part of my whole outlook and as precious grounding for my faith is a lonely walk in my parts (Denmark). Now I feel less lonely and reading about St. Lydia's makes my heart smile and gives me hope for the church in general.

I resonate with you completely! I would love to check out the place in Brooklyn if we make it to New York!
