Do you practice religion?
Religion: “the service and worship of God or the supernatural” or “a particular system of faith and worship”.
I attended Holy Trinity School from first to eighth grade. Every Sunday we attended 9:15 mass at Holy Trinity Church.
I made my first communion in third grade, and my confirmation in sixth grade, and our eighth grade graduation was at the church.
Through high school, college, and until my mother passed away when I was 27, when I was home, I attended church with my family.
During that phase of my life my religion fell into the “a particular system of faith and worship” category. I felt like I was always being talked at.
About 10 years ago, I began exploring other options of religion. I tried the episcopal church, the baptist church, the local non-denominational church, and even met with the Jehovah Witness ladies who knocked on my door!
I found that I really enjoyed the non-denominational church because it felt like everyone was involved in the ceremony. I read and learned more about the Bible than I did in my years at school. I loved the music too!
This began my “service and worship of God (or the supernatural)” phase. Although I don’t attend the church anymore, I feel closer to God than I ever did before.
