Finding a church that fits.

Sorry it has been a little bit since I have last posted anything.  It was a busy week! Pretty much lots of class time.  On the other hand today is Sunday! It’s a fresh start to a new week and I plan to make it a priority to post more!

This morning I went to try out a new church.  It was a very inviting atmosphere and the people there were more than friendly! However, I don’t think that it was for me.  To be honest when I was looking over their website last night I thought I had found THE ONE, THE CHURCH.  Sadly, I am still on the lookout. 

As a little background I was born and raised Catholic and went to a Catholic school for 10 years.  I was literally raised at that church and loved the sense of family and home that it brought every time I went. When it came time for High School I attended a public school, being separated from a lot of my friends who went to attend the private high school in the area. 

It was then that I found myself wanting more from church.  After church one day a family friend introduced me to Young Life.  Naturally, my first thought was no.  My mother had different plans.  She would not take no for an answer.

Today I owe her so much for that trip.  It has forever changed my life.  Young Life introduced me to so much and looking through some old pictures I would do anything to go back! I cant believe it has been almost 5 years!

It was also through Young Life that I found an amazing church! However, that church is back in my hometown and my struggle still continues to find a new one. I know that good things take time! So, I am only waiting for that day to come!

Do you know of any churches/college based groups in the Gainesville area? I would love recommendations!
