Church Update

I have been meaning to write this particular update for several weeks, but you know how it is, right? Anyway, Zach and I chose a new church home last month, Sovereign Grace Church of Indiana. Some of you might remember that it's the church we visited on our first trip to Indiana back in May, but when we moved here in the summer we just weren't sure it was the right place for us. We began attending a Baptist church in the area but after nearly five months there we found ourselves pretty discontent. We still felt like strangers, and we didn't feel the church was helping us grow spiritually. It was hard to contemplate leaving, though, because the pastor and his wife really had made efforts to reach out to us, though no one else had.

The first Sunday we decided to revisit Sovereign Grace we immediately felt it was where we belong. Countless people introduced themselves to us and we were invited to a Care Group (small group Bible Study), which we've now been attending for a few weeks. The people at Sovereign Grace are passionate for Christ and that passion overflows into a love for people.

I still pray for our old church. They have a caring pastor who desires to see the congregation grow in numbers and maturity. But it's just not the right place for me and Zach. I am so thankful that God has led us to a place where we can worship Him with likeminded people and hear His Word preached well.
