  I finally transferred to California for my dream job! As a creative design supervisor at a five-star hotel, my job is establishing advertisements, marketing events, composing press releases, and even organizing concerts and parties within the hotel. When I relocated I had everything prepared and it was a fairly simple transition. When Sunday came, however, I had recognized I had to find a church.
  
  My church in my hometown was perfect for me since it was small, close-knit, and many of the fellow worshippers had known me for my entire life. Because we were so close, I was able to take an active role in my church as well. Being in the choir and serving as a teacher's assistant in Sunday school was a remarkable experience. I wished to continue having an active role in a church but wasn't sure how to take the first step. fremont ca churches
  
  I wished to find a church that provided a similar community and opportunities. Moreover, I wished to be in a church with a similar objective as the one in my home town. There, we were focused on missionary work and being a great Christian Monday through Saturday, not just on Sundays. I knew there were many Baptist churches, San Jose Baptist among them, that shared my beliefs. But I wished to make sure it was the right fit for me.
  
  One day at my job, I was talking with a colleague and she told me about her church. It was an independent Baptist church. San Jose was where it was located, and they concentrated on missionary and evangelical work. I was thrilled to learn it was not far from home and I can actually participate in arranging trips and Bible camps for kids. I decided I would attend the following Sunday and see if it was for me. independent baptist fremont ca

  On that Sunday, I drove there with my colleague. She explained that the pastor focuses on expository preaching. San Jose was not a location I expected to have a large population of Baptists however I was completely surprised 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 talked about how we ought to constantly try our best to be the church instead of just going to it. By encouraging followers to take an active role in church, he said, the church will become a stronger, more valuable part of the area. Once it was over, I walked up to thank the pastor and decided to join.

  Now that I have joined I manage and arrange every one of our mission trips. Up until now I have actually planned a trip for Haiti and the Philippines this summer. I have also been able to help our Sunday school instructor organize a summer Bible camp. Hopefully my experience will motivate others to find the right church and become more knowledgeable about their faith.
