At first, I was a little nervous about going to a church that I have never been to before and debated about not going. However, I was reassured by my friend and her family that I would enjoy it. They were right. Walking through the doors for the first time, I realized that it was casual dress and embodied many families. Much like my church at home. However, the way in which St. Paul's goes about conducting their service is very different from the church I am used to. For example, as soon as you enter the sanctuary the first thing you do is pick up a program that has the lessons and scripture for that days sermon on it. At the Christian Church I go to in my home town we do not have this. St. Paul's also involved reading out loud and engaged the audience a lot more. They also served communion differently from my church. This was extremely neat to see how two churches, with the same goal of spreading God's word, could differ so much. None the less, I enjoyed the message and the people at St. Paul's. I plan on attending another service next week!
