Since I moved back her I have been looking for a church. although I know nothing could compare to the love I felt in NC I have to find somewhere I can worship and be happy to be with others who want the same as me. The churches here are so big that I am not sure if there could ever be a family for me. Although my church was over 700 people we knew each other in my church and the paster still sits in the front of the church where the alter is still sacared place and there are still prayer calls at the alter. there was a belonging that I felt that I have not felt at my new church. the church I am attending now does not sit on the alter nor does he actually preach. he uses more of a teaching method to get his point across. Let me say that I have nothing against the churches her but they are just not for a southern girl like me. I do like the pastor of the church I attend now but I long for the choirs that were bless to sing the old spirituals and the keeping with the washing of the saints feet a practice that my church here in the city does not do. so yes I long for that church home that I can actually call Home. Will I ever be happy. I know I will because as long as I hear the word of god I know that that is all I need to fill that longing for a church home. As I ask god to fill my heart with love and understanding of this new age the teachings of the pastors I know that I will not be lead astray.
