It's like going back to an old school and finding that they tore it down and built a fancier school with none of the old faculty. <br /><br />It's funny how important a building is to our personal faith. I find my faith without a body of believers is sorely lacking. I guess I haven't reached perfection yet.

Like Christmas, they were always more special. While it's great that your church is feeding the homeless, I'm with you; I'd want a full fledged Easter service this Sunday. I'm sure you're going to have an awesome home service though. Maybe you'll have some friends or family that might want to join you and help further create that sense of community that you were talking about. Honestly, that's the large majority of the reason I kept going to church in college; the relationships I fostered with the people in my church, and the way I felt a PART of the church, not merely an observer. Though there is a denomination of my church where I currently live, I don't get those same feelings there as I did when I lived in La Verne. Interestingly enough, I attended the current nearby church as a teenager, and even got baptized there, but so much has changed, and so many people have moved on that it's just not the same. Home church might be the way to go for me too. Ericamoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17149562514128914932noreply@blogger.com
