We've been New Yorkers for over a week and it is quite a new experience. To top that, we went to an Episcopal service for church today. We attended St. Mark's which is just a couple blocks away. We could have walked but today a wind came up and it was only about 32 degrees. My puppies were terrified all night and I was met with an icy gust of wind when I took them out for potty time--so no walking to church today!
It was a wonderful historic church that was so beautiful. The service was hard to follow although I've attended Anglican in London and several Catholic services across the country. We were recently at St. Martin in the Fields in London and I loved taking communion at Westminster Abbey. I really love the Book of Common Prayer and I loved the priestly singing segments and even singing call and response type portions. I only knew a couple of the songs and a few of the prayers. The songs out of the hymnal were sung SO HIGH. Trying to keep up with everything, I did not have as much opportunity to rest into Jesus. But that would come with time. I was so thankful to be amongst believers and to worship and adore Him. I was thankful for Communion. I was thankful. I look forward to the Prize: JESUS! I am thankful now and I have my heart set on worshipping Him face to face--Hallelujah!
Pray with us that Steve can get TGD online! I know a few of you donate through the paypal site and I want this new transition to be as easy as possible.
