I Missed Going To Church Physically With My Brother And My Mother

It is just nostalgic because it was just like last week I was with my brother and then later with my mother and my neighbor who already passed now, the four of us going to church.

Me and my brother are members of the same sect, we were former Catholics but were converted to mcgi.org. I was the one who was converted first and my aim was to be basically saved when I die because at that time I got sort of depressed and was able to watch the television program of mcgi.org.

Later about a year after my baptism my brother asked me on how he could get indoctrinated. I was surprised because I didn't know that when we were watching the program I am not expecting him to get the interest in joining the Church of God.

I was already sick then and I thought really that it was just easy to die with my Kidney condition. I even went to my grandmother's home where some of my cousins reside and my intention was to at least be with them and get to know them before I die.

It was a long vacation because I was there for four months, I was scared to go home alone because back then I was just still young and doesn't know much, being in my later teen life. So I waited until my Uncle, the brother of my Father to go to the city with his boss so I can hitch a ride.

Anyway, me and my brother went so active in our church, attending church three time a week on prayer meeting on Wednesday, Saturday night worship service, and a whole day attendance on Sundays with our weekly thanksgiving to God.

I attended church with my brother for so long a time that I thought that it would not end but it did after I could not possibly walk anymore. And so after that my church are just sending me a church worker where he brings the copies of the prayer meeting. etc to my home so me and my mother could watch as if I attended church too but this time around I can only watch the re-runs of the church proceedings here in my abode.

Then after that I can just think about my brother attending church alone without me as his companion. Then the pandemic came so now we can just stream the prayer meetings, church thanksgiving, and worship service via the Internet streaming services like YouTube private.

We have to otherwise we will just disobey the government health authorities and that is just bad. Until the pandemic gets resolved we will just stay like this, attending church at home via streaming while other churches just stopped their operation like other businesses but the Church of God's propagation of the gospel continues.

It had a good effect on many people though because some people who can't do anything because they are locked down because of the pandemic just got the chance to listen to mcgi.org's program via the TV and Internet so they got interested and they joined! So the baptisms continues and many people in turn got converted.

I hope that soon I can attend the church physically but it seems impossible for now and I will just trust God if he would will it for me.
