I am so pissed at this church we go to. I asked the secretary there a question by e-mail and her reply is ask someone there they'll direct you. But couldn't she just tell me she is the secretary she must know the way there. I hate that they act like I am all better than them. Like I cant bring anything nice there or I am showing off. Do you agree she was rude.

the answer to your question is yes. I do think it was a bit rude of her. Some people are just rude and lazy like that. They don't take pride in their jobs.
I don't know if it had anything to do with what you were saying about how the rest of the congregation feels about you or not. In any case, it was rude behavior.
In reply to the second part of your question, I have dealt with people like that in churches as well. I have yet to find a church in which I can just pray without all of the drams. Some of them, not all are like small soap operas. My suggestion would be to find another church in which you feel comfortable or bring your concerns to someone in authority. It may work, but it's doubtful.
Don't change who you are for anyone. Church is supposed to be about love and acceptance. Maybe you should tell them that. I hope this helped.
Good luck to you and God bless,
