On
Sunday October 6th, I attended a Methodist church service at Shorter
African Methodists Episcopal Church. It was a longer service that lasted for
about three hours, which gave me a new idea on what it really meant to praise
Jesus. There was standing up, hand
gestures, and everyone spoke their mind when the preacher was talking. These
outward expressions of faith are new to me personally since I come from a more
reserved background that is Lutheran.
The few hundred congregants that attended the service really made the
place fill up with a great atmosphere. This was a very new and eye opening
experience that I was able to achieve because of the interesting topic of world
religions for one of our classes at Wartburg West.
