{Off-Sunday} You are not baptised!!!

Hello peeps happy Sunday! During the closing of the year service at my church I made a decision to change, this change is aimed towards going to church more often. I mentioned in one of my posts about how have become a part time church gower and that did not seat well with me nor my family and friends so that day I promised The Lord to try my hardest to go to church on Sunday and it didn't necessarily have to be New Apostolic but had to be a Christian church.

Last night I asked my housemate if I could go to church with her as her church is 2 minutes from the house we live in. She accepted and she was so happy I had finally decided to go to church with her. I went to a Catholic Church today for the first time in over 20 years, the last time I went I was a kid in zambia and the priest at the church refused me holy communion because he said I was not baptised in their church. I must say from the day on wards I refused to set foot into a Catholic Church I just remember being a kid and being so embarrassed after walking a long way from my seat to the front only to be denied the only communion. I was hurt to say the least, that was the last day I set for into a Catholic Church until today. 

I was nervous and anxious because old feelings started to resurface so I just prayed hard and concentrated on the word that was being preached today. I enjoyed the service I enjoyed being in the presence of The Lord and worshiping but I will say I missed my church but since we all pray to the same God my heart and are soul are equally nourished. 

After the service my friends and I went about town and had Sunday roast, good chat and shopping then home to reflect on the days happenings and being thankful for what The Lord has done for me in my life and what he continues to do for me daily.

Thanks for reading my post, I hope you enjoyed it please comment below.

Hello lovely lady! Great post and a fine one for a Sunday! I think it is always great to experience different denominations as it allows for more acceptance of others and balance of ourselves. :) I was also told, only by the parent that I was not allowed communion, as a child because of not being baptized. I allow my youngest to partake though she has not been as of yet, though she will be next year. I also had the same sour feelings, which is part of the reason that I stopped going for 30 years. Sadly our services were cancelled today, due to bad weather. So we are staying in for the day. Have a great week lady!

Lovely post. I think that the most important thing is that you have (and keep) the faith, and do whatever your heart tells you to keep on nourishing it :) ♥
