Jamie and I are really loving our new church! It was starting to get frustrating trying to find a new church that we felt like God was leading us to. The first time we visited Fellowship (I think when we were first married) we were immediately overwhelmed with the size and crowd. And even earlier this summer when we went back a few times, we were still not convinced we could feel at home in a church of that magnitude. But after visiting tons of churches in the area we kept finding ourselves drawn back to Fellowship. So we kept going a few Sundays in a row and somewhere along the way we both just realized that this was were God wanted us. And now we LOVE it! Every worship and sermon really inspires and challenges us each week. Audrie does so great in the nursery (and actually Jamie and I are going to start working in one of the two year old rooms). The music is just so uplifting and beautiful- I can't wait until I feel ready to start back serving in that ministry, too. It still feels really odd to worship with a room full of strangers, but we hope as we continue to attend, join a small group, and get more involved that we'll be confident this is where God wants us to worship and work on our relationship with Him.
