It is the knowledge that there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too. - Frederick Buechner If society prospers at the expense of the intangibles, how can it be called progress? -LLP

Celtic Guardian Group: Celtic Nation Posts: 535 Joined: 06-May-2004 Zodiac: Ivy Realm: Middle Earth	I am a serious social butterfly so I really enjoy the fellowship. I do enjoy the teachings because it enriches my knowledge. It helps me to focus and dig deeper into the word. I also go for support and a shoulder to lean on sometimes. -------------------- What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us. --Ralph Waldo Emerson Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap, but by the seeds you plant. --Robert Louis Stevenson

Last winter, her sister moved up here. Our church has been our extended family for the past quarter decade. I go for all the other reasons; worship, fellowship, a responsibility to the Church, but I also go because going to church is a family get together for me. -------------------- Be Mindful

From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king..." SGGardner Art www.SouthernShireFarm.com

Reader of souls, vision seeker, TROLL Group: Super Moderator Posts: 4,513 Joined: 20-Jun-2003 Zodiac: Holly Realm: The frontier of Penn's Woods	I don't go to a building to worship or pray... my cathedral is the great outdoors as the creator made it! -------------------- I support the separation of church and hate! IMAGINATION - the freest and largest nation in the world! One can not profess to be of "GOD" and show intolerence and prejudice towards the beliefs of others. Am fear nach gleidh na h�airm san t�sith, cha bhi iad aige �n am a� chogaidh. He that keeps not his arms in time of peace will have none in time of war.

Celtic Guardian Group: Wales Posts: 2,213 Joined: 24-Jun-2003 Zodiac: Reed	As is mine, Shadows. But, I need more as well, so I go to church. The cathedral made by the hands of God feeds me, being in community with others, hearing sermons challenges me. I am challenged by the words of scripture, the words of the sermons and I am ultimately challenged when interacting with others in Christian love. I also go to church to contribute. If it were all about me, I'd not need a church building or family very much. Such is the life of an introvert. But, God gave me certain talents and it is my duty to share them for the good of the body. So, I sing in choirs and Praise Band. I lead children's choirs. I write plays and skits. I participate and sometimes teach Sunday School. And in the community I find something I would live without if it were up to me.

Mistress of the North Winds Group: Galicia Posts: 215 Joined: 03-Aug-2004 Zodiac: Ivy Realm: New Jersey	Well, I suppose there are several reasons why I go. For refreshment, to worship together with others, out of obedience to God's command, for the encouragement and fellowship of other Christians. I think all of these are important.
