Ulog #64 Sunday Morning in God’s House

in steemchurch •  7 years ago 

Sunday morning service. No padded pews. No Air Conditioning. No Carpeting. No expensive sound system. Dirt floors. Plastic Chairs AND the TANGIBLE PRESENCE OF GOD!

Road my motorcycle to church. About 14 kilometers away. It rained so very hard on the way back home and I got thoroughly wet even wearing rain gear. All of this may sound like a complaint but it is far from it. I would go through so much more to experience God’s presence along with His People. God bless the Philippines!

Worship in Cebuano

Back at the house after some Mang Inasol Chicken and unlimited rice with out entourage of 9, including soft drinks and Leche flan for $20.00 USDOLLARS.

Rain has stopped and enjoying our family.

Thank you and God bless!

reminds me of our church back in Tanzania. i went back there 2 years ago after being away for nearly 10 years and it looked the same as before. i was mad as to why they haven't made any effort to have it finished over the years. The homely welcome and togetherness of the church members is a feeling like no other..
I realized that the building did not matter at all after all, for even the bible said "For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them"

I love these churches! It is not the building, it is the people and the true presence of God!
Amen! Thank you for your great comments!

I'm happy to see you had a good time @mhm-philippines 😊

Thank you! Same guy downvoted again! Interesting friendship. Lol! I hope you are having a great day.

I guess it wasn't on accident. I saw @ronafe's post about the flag ring. It might be one of them.

Some people have nothing better to do with their time! Steemit is pretty good compared to other places and here, they will be dealt with eventually.

Yeah. I agree @mhm-philippines

All of this may sound like a complaint but it is far from it. I would go through so much more to experience God’s presence along with His People.

This part touched me. A true Christian is ready to undergo any circumstance for Christ's sake, I commend your selfless effort in supporting God's work. Indeed, God will reward you abundantly...

Amen my friend and dear brother! The reward is far greater than the sacrifice.
Blessings!

It sounds like a lovely way to spend a Sunday to me. :D Wonderful to see all those people participating in the sing-a-long. :D I love that one girl in the second row in the white dress with the black collar and flower (I think that's what it is, the camera moves too fast for me to be sure though, so if I'm wrong, sorry) pattern on it, with her finger in her ear so she can get her pitch right/hear how she sounds. :D She made me smile a bit bigger and I'm not even sure exactly why, but please thank her for me. :D
God bless you, your family, and your ministry. :D Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! :D

It is much different in the church services here. I noticed this young lady as I reviewed the video before posting. I do believe she was covering her ear to get the right pitch. Perhaps she was harmonizing.
Thank you for stopping by my dear friend!
Blessings!

It is always a pleasure to come by for a visit my friend. :D
God bless you, your family, and your ministry. :D Have an awesome day my fabulous friend! :D

This was amazing! Thank you for sharing what your Sunday morning looks like. It made me laugh a little when you wrote about what you ate, here in America, I feel like church makes everyone so hungry lol so lunch afterwards always exciting!

Thank you for stopping in and commenting. My wife and I are from Virginia USA, but God has sent us here as full time missionaries for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We have been here now for 4 years. I like to show what church is like in a much different place. The Ulog is sort of a diary of each day. Lots of the people who read my post would know or rhe restaurant I mentioned. Also the pricing may be of interest to some. It is possible to go out to eat for $1-2 per person.
Thank you for your comments!
Blessings!

Ohhhh nice!! So you know what I'm talking about then here in America haha Hope you have a great day!

You also! Been away for 4 years.
