Church

Since we moved here, we have been church 'shopping.' Basically trying out different ones looking for one that might be a good fit. We have been to services where the music wasn't very good and have yet to feel - at any of the churches we visited - very welcomed by the congregation. We have always introduced ourselves as visitors, but the only person who has really spoken to us after the service has been the pastor. One church we have attended has very good music, but it's a large congregation so we probably wouldn't get involved much more than attending Sunday services.

We have also been invited to two other churches - both are non-denomiational I think so probably not our "cup of tea", but we will try them out.

Today, we had a pretty good experience: the music was lead well, the service was familiar and the sermon was good. The pastor also seemed in touch with what was happeneing in the service. Right before communion, though, we saw a large rat run up the wall before it came back down and sprinted towards the front of the church. Good sign or bad?? (We will probably go back anyway.)
