Hi Flossie May,
As my name implies... I too was indoctrinated in a cult, grew up in one for a decade. Didn't know it till i was out.
I support you in telling your story. It is an empowering thing to feel heard, especially when one has spent part of their life being told what to think, feel and what to say and do by someone else.
As far as finding another church. If it is Jesus that you still believe in, then they say, He is in your heart already. Don't worry. Far be it from me to offer spiritual advice, or guidance to a stranger... I will say that the Creator of the universe, in my opinion, doesn't make mistakes, and is allowing life to continue on this earth... Wooo! Am i glad! : )
Joy is your strength. And "laughing and crying, you know it's the same release..."
I hope this message finds you well.
peace
