church

Today I went to the first church service I've been to since I've been back to the states. I went to my home church in Orlando and heard a really great sermon. It reminded me of being at SOFEFO (my youth group in Bandung) retreats and actually having something to take notes on; something that's applicable to my life and interesting. The atmosphere of the church was good with a mix of young to old, but there was a nice family atmosphere that gave unity to it all. Seeing the people at church was good for me because I had known many of the kids when they were little and now they're all grown up and leading pretty uplifting lives. It was encouragement for me to see them worshiping and it was a good reminder of what it takes to be a Christian in this country. Well, now I'm looking forward to finding a good church in Columbia and getting involved in a small group. I'll be visiting up there next week, so it'll be good to get a feel for the area.
