Anyone still attend their local Catholic church?

I’m reconnecting with my faith. I was baptized and received First Communion in the Catholic Church, but never really learned much about its doctrine or rituals. Right now, I lean toward a non-denominational outlook where my personal relationship with Jesus matters more than denominational rules. I’m still figuring out what path fits me best.

Recently, I attended my girlfriend’s non-denominational church, which had a very contemporary style. While I respect it, I’ve always appreciated the seriousness of the Catholic Mass. It feels more fitting for how I want to approach my relationship with Jesus, rather than a service that feels like a casual concert.

I’m curious whether anyone here still attends Mass even after leaving the Catholic Church. I haven’t found another non-Catholic church with a liturgy as traditional or reverent as the Catholic one.
