I finally transferred to California for my dream job! As a creative design supervisor at a five-star hotel, my job is developing advertisements, marketing events, writing press releases, and even organizing concerts and parties within the hotel. When I relocated I had everything prepared and it was a fairly easy transition. When Sunday came, though, I had understood I had to find a church. christian worship services in sunnyvale
My church in my hometown was ideal for me because it was small, close-knit, and many of the fellow worshippers had known me for my entire life. Because we were so close, I had the ability to take an active role in my church as well. Being in the choir and working as a teacher's aide in Sunday school was a remarkable experience. I wished to continue having an active role in a church however wasn't sure how to take the first step.
I wanted to find a church that provided a similar community and opportunities. Moreover, I wished to be in a church with a similar purpose as the one in my hometown. There, we were focused on missionary work and being a good Christian Monday through Saturday, not simply on Sundays. I knew there were lots of Baptist churches, San Jose Baptist among them, that shared my beliefs. However I wished to make sure it was the right fit for me.
One day at my job, I was talking with a coworker and she informed me about her church. It was an independent Baptist church. San Jose was where it was found, and they focused on missionary and evangelical work. I was thrilled to learn it was not far from home and I could actually participate in arranging trips and Bible camps for kids. I decided I would go to the following Sunday and see if it was for me.
On that Sunday, I drove there with my coworker. She explained that the pastor concentrates on expository preaching. San Jose was not a place I anticipated to have a big population of Baptists however I was thoroughly shocked by the amount of followers at this church. There were at least 300 worshippers attending that Sunday. It was nice to see there were others with similar ideas and beliefs.
Eventually it was time for us to take our seats. I sat with my friend, and before I knew it, I loved what the pastor had to say. He went over how we ought to constantly try our best to be the church instead of just going to it. By motivating followers to take an active role in church, he said, the church will become a stronger, more valuable part of the area. As soon as it was over, I walked up to thank the pastor and determined to join.
Now that I have joined I handle and arrange all of our objective trips. So far I have actually planned a trip for Haiti and the Philippines this summer. I have also had the ability to help our Sunday school instructor arrange a summer Bible camp. Hopefully my experience will inspire others to find the right church and become more knowledgeable about their faith. siteadvertiser
