Hi,Train, My name is Judy(bjptl). The ptl stands for Praise the Lord! We belong to a small/new church (3 yrs old) Right now we meet in a building that is quite small, but have purchased property nearby and will have a building of our own as the Lord provides.---Any way I digress! Even though we are small we have a very loving congregation( around 60) which makes it easy to feel comfortable and accepted when you are a newcomer. We have a fellowship 1/2 hour before the church service with refreshments provided by different ones who have signed up for bringing food,l and the church provides coffee and soft drinks. It's a really good idea, I think.---We also have an evening pot-luck supper every now and then, and a Rook party night once a month at one of our member's home. We have several home Bible Studys during the week since we haven't room for Sunday school for adults.---I know it's hard to find the right place where you feel you fit in and are loved. Don't give up looking. You'll find it. Pray about where God wants you to be, then just keep trying different churches. You may have to go several times to really make a judgment.
