LCCF

I went to LCCF (Laurier Chinese Christian Fellowship) for the first time in a long time today. I wanted to go last week, but I ended up studying because I was behind in my courses. But, today I went even though it was raining. ;)

It turned out to be really fun. It started awkward at first, because the first few people that showed up early barely said hi or even talked to me. But, not too long after, other people started coming in and they started talking to me and we started to get to know each other. We sang a few songs, most of them I knew, then we had a Bible study. We divided ourselves up into four smaller groups.

Our topic today was about spiritual gifts. We talked about what spiritual gifts are and examples of them. We even had discussions about if spiritual gifts and talents are two different things. We also brainstormed ideas of how to use these spiritual gifts to reach out to the community, especially around our campus.

Anyway, I wanted to share my opinions with my group members, but I was really shy today. I don't know why. I really wanted to just speak up and share with them what I think, because everybody was really quiet. But, I don't know why I got really shy and barely said anything. Although in the end, I gathered up some courage to say a little bit of what I wanted to say. Maybe I'm just not used to being in a room full of Asian people.. anymore! =p Or maybe I kind of felt out place at first because usually the places I've been where it involves church are among Indonesians or Canadians. But, as always, being in a room full of believes keep me happy. I honestly enjoyed the meeting to the fullest.

Although I wish that the other people would be more friendly towards the new comer, but I'm definitely coming back. I've never really enjoyed my University life to the fullest, and I think now is the time to do that before it's too late. DOH! I'm in my last year of University! =p

This is it for tonight. I'm hittin' the sack.. right now! =)

ps. Do you notice I've been using a lot of smiley faces? Haha.. that's how happy I am right now. So now you know why I love going to church so much! *wink*
