Georgia, my g-grandma, life, and church.

Jun 02, 2007 09:35

I just got back from Georgia. I saw my g-grandmother, g-aunt, aunt, and tons of cousins. For those who don't know my g-grandfather died recently. It was going to be my g-grandparents 70th wedding anniversary, that's a long time to be with someone. My g-grandma was definitely sad sometimes, I could tell that their love was so deep. During my time there I mainly relaxed but I went to Mountasia which is a place that has mini-golf, bumper boats, race track, and arcade and I played the card game Canasta. I was sad to leave my g-grandma b/c I do not know when I will see her again. She is such a nice person, she reminds me of myself as we are a lot alike. I hope I can get back there soon.

In my life not much has gone on. I go to work, a few days are stressful but for the most part I like my job. I try to get things done when I'm not running somewhere else. I'm involved in meetup groups, I have a tv show to watch on Mondays with friends one night during the school year, I have girls night on Wednesday, and I go to Bible study every other Thursday night. I keep myself pretty busy. Matt seems to like his new state job, he still is working at FedEx for a little bit more so I don't see him much.

I am still looking for a church home, but it is hard as I went back to Colonial Park, now Cross Point United Methodist Church as it has more than one church, and heard Pastor Dave speak. He is the greatest pastor I've ever heard and he is in touch with all people. The problem I have is that some UMC is preaching from The Message, now it did not seem that they did that there. Another problem I have is all the things that have to be said when someone is baptized or confirmed, to me only little needs to be said (ex. To the parents: Do you promise to raise these children up in the church and follow the teachings of the Bible? Yes. Church: Do you promise to help raise these children up to follow the teachings of the Bible? Yes. What is the name of the child? I now baptize you in the name of the father, son, and holy ghost.) See it's still being traditional but not going through all these things to say, that drives me nuts! I don't know if I will find the right church for me, I might end up going back to Cross Point as for the most part I like it. We will see. That's all for now.
