Hey Lori,
None of my business but I believe I would find another church.  I belong to the Christian church (of course I don't get to go much) but we would love to have you and your dog.  Ive never read anywhere in the Bible where God says no dogs allowed.  Lol  Silas

"No offense Lori but how do you fare in church not believing in religion?"
 
I believe in hardcore old-fashioned values.  Finding people who have the same values as we do in society today is extremely difficult.
 
Of all faiths, The LDS Church (Mormon) shares the same values and truly 'due unto your neighbor' living.  Of course their are hypocrites everywhere so that's understood.
 
Everyone (even in the same denominations) has a different "take" on this or that in "beliefs" otherwise we'd all be clones of each other.
 
I may never buy into the whole fairy tale but may find hope, help & sincerity in church fellowship.
 
HOWEVER .. I just met w/ the church missionaries (who make visits until you're a member) and there may be a problem with having my service dog attend!  I met with the Bishop's wife 3 weeks ago and it wasn't an issue.  Now it seems to be.
 
Like.. are they so weak in faith they can't concentrate if a dog is in the back of the church?  Which is where I'd be.  Are they above the ADA?  Does their worship fail?
 
Here's where CHURCH POWER comes into play.  So I may be seeing their true colors now too.  They allow dogs for the blind but are giving me a problem.  Hmmmmph!
 
We'll see.
 
Lori
