Just when you thought you were completely alone...

old post from italy!

So one of the hardest things on this trip is that I could not find a church. At first I did not know where there was a Evangelical Church or if there even was, then I was like...oh I'll be fine...I have podcasts and I'm reading my Bible(sometimes...not enough at the time! Dad yes you were right I didn't have a good set goal and nothing was getting done) I knew I wanted to read Isaiah and Jeremiah BUT REALLY!! that is not enough... an entire summer...I need a challenge...not something that I can put off because I have time!! So after getting lost, putting it off, not looking that hard...and worrying too much about explaining to my friends that I was skipping beach trips to go to church...I was already being made fun of for certain things I said and thought! You would think after living in Onyx for the past 3 years I would understand very clearly the importance of Christian fellowship! I have just got comfortable and taken advantage of other Christians always being there! ANYWAY...sometimes I am fascinated how stupid I can be...you'd think I would know better... I do know better I'm just stupid sometimes! 
SO with the help of my wonderful father...I found an Assemblies of God Church. It is so cute!!! It's in a strip-mall type thing. And for the past 2 Sundays there have been about 40-50 people... including kids.Very small, very crowded, a very intimate church! It was really great. Different but really great!
