G
it has been about 2 years since I have gone to church.
I stopped going cuz I graduated high school and went to work at a Christian summer camp.
but before I went off I helped out at my church a lot and actually felt like I kinda fit in. It took me a while to finally feel like that, and now I dont feel like I belong there at all.
I am at that awkward age where i am not in the youth group, but feel out of place in the adult groups. and the college group I used to go to disbanded.
when I came back from working at the summer camp lots of things had changed in the church I went to, and I didnt have any friends there (I only had 2 to begin with)
I hate going alone cuz I will just sit in the back alone. I am not the type to go make friends.... especially in a big church.
I was thinking about going back, but on June 1st I am just going back to work at the summer camp and I dont want to just start going and then leave again.
but also I feel that I just dont fit in, at all. I kinda know a few people, but I dont consider them to be friends, and I just cant explain it. I just feel like church isnt for me =/
I know it is good to go and hear the word of God, but I can get that from TV or whatever, and I think the real reason for church is to fellowship... but how can I fellowship when I dont know anyone there and am too shy and awkward to make friends 0.o
if you could give me any tips that might help that would be great, and of course I would love it if you could pray for me. thanks.
