[Faith-talk] Ministry

[Denise Valkema]

My church has a gift study & test and allows people to test drive a ministry until one is found and you can switch. You have the desire and in time will know. You are on the right track. It is great you get wors to worship songs a week ahead.

    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
