What I am Searching for?
Settling in continues…but, I miss my family, my church and my friends. We are searching for our church home so Last week we visited the Episcopal church in Keller.It was a perfectly nice church with nice enough people, but it did not feel like home. We met some people and I am sure
it is a perfectly nice place, but I wasn’t feeling it. This week we visited First Baptist Euless (aka Six Flags over Jesus). It is a huge church with 1700 people in a service. They have state
of the art childrens programs and Sunday school. There is multimedia display, huge choir, and
a brass section in the worship team. It was too big and too loud. There were a couple of baptisms and there was no audience participation. I am not sure what I am searching for. I really just want the same church I had at Trinity. I keep looking for my Donna, Christy, and Ann. Where is my wonderful priest with his short, but impactful message? Where are my communion wafer and confession with the congregation? None of that was present here.
I know God has the right church for our family, but as usual I am impatient. Patience is one lesson that I seem to need to learn over and over and over again…
In other news…
We finally got the books all unpacked. We are big readers. Next step is to purchase another storage building for all the items that were in the old garage. I passed my first test for teaching certification and I take my final test next Saturday. I am looking forward to getting that out of the way. My friend who works in the Irving ISD was kind enough to pass my resume on to her principal. I hope there is a spot for me in the fall. I am ready to teach!!
Till next time…
