So as many of you know, my little family and I joined First Baptist
recently and we've been going pretty regularly. However, last week Jake was sick so we missed it, and this week Chris was sick with probably the same thing that Jake had. I didn't want to miss two weeks straight (especially right after joining!) so I got the kids dressed this morning and we took off for the 8:00 service. Dropped Jake off at pre-Sunday school daycare and Luke and I headed to the sanctuary. We heard singing.
"I know this song," Luke said, "It's that one that lasts forever."
He was right, I had to admit. It does last forever. :)
I like the contemporary service, but I do miss the old hymnal standards that I could sing in the "blue haired" service at 9:00. :) When the old pastor got up (whom I love), Luke said, "That is that funny guy." (Luke liked a joke he told last time.)
Luke made the funniest face when an older woman got up to sing "People Need the Lord" and honestly, she wasn't that great at singing. He gestured like, "get a load of this." I had to quickly shush him up and put his finger pointing hand down.
For the rest of the service, he looked around and got out his Lego figurines. I was okay with the latter until he started flying them around in front of him, above pew level.
They went in my purse.
After the service was over, we visited Nanny in her older people Sunday School class. She seemed proud to show Luke off to her pals in there.
I really love the new friends in my Sunday School class. I never knew church could actually feel this good. Seriously.
