Homechurching

A new change is coming about...
Because of the falling out we had with the pastor of our last church (who denied his duties as pastor, then flat out lied to us), we've been looking for a new church for quite some time. Due to my husbands bipolar disorder and the resulting medication, he usually never wakes up before about noon or 1pm making attending Sunday services near impossible. We could do evening services, but the kids have an early bedtime (they are in bed by 7pm) and need to be kept on a routine otherwise one late night will lead to a chain event of bad nights AND bad days because their sleep schedules will be mixed up.

Well let's face it. We NEED God more in our lives. We homeschool, so, why not homechurch until a different solution comes about? I am exploring this link http://www.homechurchresources.com/ for more information and this Sunday I hope to have something put together where we can worship and be open to the Word of God. I'm not sure it will be a permanent solution, we'll have to see where the Lord leads us. But by doing this, we can also train our children to sit quietly with us during services when we do attend again (my son has the most trouble with this, my oldest daughter does fine). Usually a nursery is available, but we try not to use them especially when we are in a new church and don't know the people who will be tending to and teaching our children.

I wanted to share with you a blog I've found to be a great inspiration: A Wise Woman Builds Her Home
