Super Sundays

Sunday.

The day of rest.

The day of worship.

The day Christians gather together to worship and fellowship.

But what happens when you move all the way to the other side of the world....to a mostly Buddhist country?

Good question! I'm glad you asked.

When Carl and I began our married lives, we  agreed to stay at the church we felt God had lead us to until He told us to move on. We were at Faith Worship Center for over 20 years. Faith was the only church Nick, Ben, Abbi, and Jacob knew. They loved it. We loved it. It took God calling us to the opposite time zone for us to leave. Although, let me add, we still consider Faith our home church. And we dearly miss and love our family at Faith.

So trying to find a new church in a foreign country was a daunting task. Our choices were some what limited:

1. An all Chinese church

2. An all English church

3. A bilingual church

For obvious reasons, the all Chinese church was not a viable option.

So the first Sunday we attended the closest- an all English church that meets at the school.

The next Sunday, we walked with friends to the church they had attended the previous week, a bilingual church. I liked that idea- we could understand, yet practice hearing (and more importantly understanding) Chinese. House of Blessing meets in a nearby Chinese Middle School. The church's sign definitely caught my attention.

 We tried out one more all English fellowship, but quickly decided House of Blessing was the place for us. So, I guess this is where we will remain until God tells us its time to move on. Last time, it was 20 years.......
