YAAAYYY!!! I found a church!!!! And it’s a Baptist church (Iglesia Evangelica Bautista), and it’s only two blocks from our house! It was in our informational booklet Veronica had given us and I had stumbled across it a few weeks ago on my way home from running in the park. Whitney and Cassandra even came with me this morning. I knew the service started at 12pm, but we got there at about 11:40am and were ushered into the adult Bible Study. Next time we know to try the one for “jovenes” at 11am.
Before the service started, Tosha, Brittney, and Jessica (other girls from our program) showed up. The church is like an international church, with people from all over the world speaking different languages, though the services are in Spanish. I absolutely loved the worship! There was a live band and I recognized some of the songs, although they were in Spanish. The sermon was harder to follow, although I knew we were in the books of Haggai, Nehemiah, and Matthew at times, but I believe that will get easier to understand in time. The service ended right before 2pm, just in time for lunch! Before leaving I met Andrew, an American from the Chicago area, who is in charge of the youth/young people of the church. He told us about the young people Bible study and the youth group that meets Saturday evenings. I definitely plan on coming back to this church and checking it out on Saturdays too.
