Episcopol. One of their favorite lines is: "whoever you are, and wherever you find yourself in the journey of faith, you're welcome to our table" (aka welcome to communion). Highly prioritize social justice and action; the church is extremely well known for its initiatives. Also has beautiful choirs and building, but who cares about that :)
