For the longest time we went to a church that was about 6 miles away. A couple of years ago I transferred to a church just 2 miles or so away. I knew God was leading me when I made that change. But even before Corona hit - I had felt uneasy about some things- mostly about my Sabbath School class. We would pick books to read and discuss. We voted on the books - and sometimes there was a good book and sometimes not. Then the Corona virus hit and closed the church. Several things happened in this time period that disappointed me greatly.
About 1 1/2 months ago I talked to a friend who shared with me that her church was open again (ours was still closed down). I was SO happy to hear that this church was open and a week later I was there to praise the Lord with other believers. And after several weeks I decided for sure that I wanted to transfer my membership. I wanted to belong to a church that showed it's faith in Jesus. And who opened and allowed it's members the choice of if they felt comfortable - to come to church and if not - they are welcome to watch online; just the way I thought it should be. So I have been going there for about 2 months. And even though it is 10 miles from my house - it is exactly where God wants me to be! I don't mind driving further away - especially since they continue to be a bright light shining for Jesus! There are many hurting people out there - now more than ever we need churches to stand up and represent Jesus to the world. I am SO happy that God led me to a church who is willing to do so. Praising the Lord!! :O)
