A new Month
So classes are going full fledge (word?), and I haven't polished up on the awesome study habits I wanted. Oh well, I passed past classes without studying... However, Bible classes are amazing!!! I love them so much!
Today was mission emphasis day, and I am so inspired to go to Scotland. It may be a hype, but I know ministry is a need over there. There are only 5 missionaries there right now and there are only about 500 members in the whole country (out of 5 million, woah). Surprisingly, the speaker, a native of Scotland, informed us that Scotland was one of the founding countries of the restoration movement. Many churches sprung up in the 50's. However, the church fell so hard there that only a handful of people remained with the Church of Christ. He says only 5 remained. All of them either left the church, or went back to the church of Scotland (Presbyterian) because of their strong influences. It's considered important to attend church in Scotland (and US too), but the missionary said he had to teach very elementary stories to his converts because they were simply not explained in church services. The missionaries sent over were the first to open bibles to answer questions of converts. May the Father bless the missionaries and converts throughout the world! Thank God for strong churches in the US, and may we strive toward other countries to spread Christ. Because of His Blessings, Jeremy |
