This weekend I closed a huge chapter in my life! The church I was raised in held it's last service on Sunday morning. My mom had brought my brother and I to that little church since I was a child...and I think my little bro might have only been 3 or so years old! That little old church would be my spiritual home until I was working my way through college in my late teens! It was just like a second home for most of my life....the small congregation like my own family. I remember our precious pastor baptizing me there when I was only 10 years old :)
So much time has passed....and people have moved on to different churches (myself included)...but I will always hold onto those memories! Oh how I would love to be 10 years old again (for just a moment)...chasing my little brother around the tables in the basement, and picking blackberries in the woods that surround the little brick building! I did get to take one of the old hymnals with me! One day I can teach my own children those old sweet songs I still know by heart :)
