two churches

Today I went to two different churches.

Community Christian Church and Trinity Anglican Parish and I love them both!

At Community Christian church, this is the type of church I was raised in, and I do love how they bring into the sermons what we are experiencing in our every day lives but I'm pretty sure that the only reason I'm still attending that church is because of Dr. Hill's intelligence and his kindness, well, and the fact that we have communion every time we meet together. I think this is important.

At Trinity Anglican Parish I love how they read scripture and our worship is centered around worshipping, speaking His words back to Him. To be honest I think I prefer the Anglican church. I'm not sure I would have said that even a few years ago. But I prefer being lost in the scriptures and it is like we are in the presence of God - at least He is very near.

On their website I came across more information and now I know that I want to attend confirmation classes. Here's the section that really touched me:

Dipping one’s fingers in the Holy water, one makes the Sign of the Cross on oneself while thinking:  “in my Baptism I was made a member of Christ, the Child of God, and inheritor of the Kingdom of Heaven”;  or, dipping one’s thumb in the Holy Water, one makes a small Sign of the Cross on one’s forehead, eyes, lips and chest, while thinking:  God be in my head, and in my thinking and understanding;  God be in my eyes, and in my looking and perceiving;  God be in my lips, and in my speaking and praising;  God be in my heart, and in my living and loving.
