Church

Kennetha Bigham-Tsai preached; life was good. She preached about communal Christianity - Christianity requires not only being non-selfish and focusing on taking care of each other, but also being communal in service. Our mission is a communal one; we cannot serve God by ourselves but must build the Church up to serve in ministry together. It was a good sermon.
Chris and I had been introduced by name during the service, so a lot of people talked to us after the service. I wore my pink outfit from India, so there were many discussions about that. One lady's husband had worked in Pakistan, so she had a similar dress. Met someone whose brother had lived in Mount Pleasant, someone who'd lived in Battle Creek, someone who'd lived near St. Johns, and people who knew other United Methodists that we talked about quite a lot. We held up the student van because people kept talking to us, but there weren't many people in the van this morning, so it wasn't a huge problem.
Also got to hold Kennetha's new baby! That was wonderful. He's so adorable! Chris got to hold him too. Looking forward to baby-sitting!
