I hear you, Barbar. I am right there, right now.
Neither of our churches have shown any concern at all while Mark was in the hospital or now that we are home.
No phone calls or nothing. It's not a denominational thing, it's that the churches are so big, if you don't attend you are obvioulsy not missed.
Yes, I did call both churches when Mark went into the hospital. Both pastors were busy and they sent out the assistant pastors/priest, neither of which know us. The pastors have NEVER called to check on us or see if we need anything. Just ONE phone call would have been nice.

We belonged to much smaller baptist/nondenominational churches in other places we have lived and that makes a big difference.

Meg, we attend St. Francis Catholic church and New Life Center, or thats where we NORMALLY attend.

Last week and today I attended a very small baptist church downtown. My second Sunday there and they were bashing Mother Theresa and Catholics. I won't go to any church that bashes anothers religion.

Along the same line, I am very upset with the pope we now have. He certainly isn't making many points with me with his military and very unfriendly ways.
And then (atleast in my neck of the woods) all the Los Angeles sex abuse scandal is in the paper every day..............

You know, right now I just feel like going to church in the park.

hugs, train
