[Faith-talk] Ministry

[Nikki]

    Alan, where do I get that article?

Um, I've been slowly getting to know people. Not to get too personal, after 
being seperated, I decided to check out a church and I liked it. My first 
time was emotional, but I got through it. I was approached by a woman that 
invited me to her home for lunch after church. We talked and I explained 
some confusion I was having spiritually. Then one Sunday, a woman gave her 
testimony and something she said drew me to meet her. I soon found myself in 
her small group of divorced parents. I was looking to make friends with 
different people. Later, she had announced an engagement. I was very happy 
for her. We had a change in Pastors and during that time, I stopped 
attending church. IDK why. January of this year is when I started going more 
steadily. getting more acquainted with the Pastors, getting introduced to 
more people, attempted a Bible Study, but couldn't follow along.

I have the music pastor send me the words to the songs that'll be sung in a 
week's advance.

IDK what I can do. I guess hearing other's testimonies about going to 
another country and helping medically or feeding the poor, supplying 
blankets, pillows, etc just drives me nuts. I wish I knew what my gifts are

I write poetry if anyone is interested in reading...

Hi Nicki,

You might start by talking to some of the church members or the
pastor's wife. Explain your situation, and that you'd like to be
involved. You can learn names and pray for them; that would be a start.

Blessings,

Linda
