Yesterday was the second Sunday that I did not attend a church service. I've been trying to get on my feet and get use to being in such a big city but mainly I afraid that I won't be able to find a church that I enjoy as much as my last.
I know that I should be looking at this challenge with such a positive attitude but the task seems to daunting.
When I started school my freshman year I honestly had no interest in attending church on Sundays or partaking in any sort of faith based activity. It was my chance to be 'free' from that obligation; or so I told myself.
I didn't have to look for a church there; it sort of found me.
I keep hoping that something similar will happen here but in such a big city it seems unlikely. I suppose that I could just start attending services and see which ones I like but that just seems like such time consuming job.
So I have decided to take a different approach. This week I'm going to attend a christian function on campus for college aged students. We had something similar at my last school but I wasn't a big fan of it. However, I am going to go into it with an open mind and hope for the best.
I'm going to try asking around and try to see the places students like to attend around here. Asking the locals is always the best way to get to know a place, after all.
Keep me in your prayers and I'll keep you posted on the journey of...
My Faith up North
