[Faith-talk] Church life in Missouri

[Greg Aikens]

I mostly got rides from other students and other friends from church. There is a bus system in town and a fairly good paratransit system. I can’t recall if they ran on sunday or not though.

I got plugged into a sunday school class and volunteered with the adopt-a-block ministry once a month. I tried volunteering with the food pantry but had less positive experiences convincing them I could actually help and that I wasn’t there to receive food. I visited several churches while I was there and had a variety of experiences. In a town like Springfield, you certainly have plenty of churches to choose from.
