church

Today we went to Park Hills Baptist Church. It's one that J found on the internet and thought looked good. I guess it wasn't one that I immediately felt welcomed and at home with, but as the service progressed, we enjoyed it more and more. We met one couple during the "greet your neighbor" song. Unfortunately, the music and worship leader were SO loud, I felt like we had to yell in order to hear each other!!
Last week we were in Dallas and went to Valwood (my parents' old church and Nanny's current church). The pastor preached on Nehemiah. The fact that we need to be more like him in humbling ourselves before God in prayer when there is a problem. (There was a lot more to the message, but that is the gist of it).
Today's message was on the same passage, making a similar point. It was interesting to hear 2 messages on the same chapter. This pastor gave a lot more background on Nehemiah.
Anyway, we are thinking about checking out their Wednesday night service. Usually those are a smaller croud, maybe we can meet more people.

You know, I just got home from church and was going to check blogs. I said to myself, "I wonder how Katie and Justin's church service went?" Then I wondered if you had already posted something on your blog about it. I was not disappointed. That's funny about Nehemiah. I hope that the Wednesday service goes well.

Yeah, we know what you mean about having to yell during the "greet your neighbor" part. I don't know why they have to keep singing during that part. I hope you meet lots of friends. I love you!

It is hard to find a church, we looked for 3 years when we moved from Frederick...never found anything that met our needs, now we are back in the church we had when we lived in Frederick and we are "home" I will pray that you find what you are looking for...

Do you have an email address?
