Re: Church Attendance
deylon' just read ur post -goodness so very rude ignorant as well ---Re: Church Attendance
Here is God or one of them.Re: Church Attendance
Why does people visit someone in hospital who they only know through church? Well mainly it's because the ill person is old and without family or near friends. However we have this thread trashing a old ill lady who irked a total stranger who came to her bedside unannounced with a gobby 'friend' from her church. I know I'd have tightened my lip if a total stranger had appeared near my bed.Re: Church Attendance
Interesting comments here. I do believe in an after life ,and we will be judged by what we have done here, but I dot believe that you have to go to Church or prove your religion to anyone.I believe the Bible is a history book, we can learn some things from it ,but not to rule our lives. I wont be visiting this woman again ,Ive only met her a couple of times.I went for company for my friend. No the woman was not in pain ,she was laughing and chatting all the time ,and her problem was not a serious one,she took herself to Hospital the night before because she was worried over some symptoms she had, but they werent considered a problem by Hospital and she was only there for observation,probably home by now. Her own religion is Pentecostal, whom ,I believe , are very religious, she only goes to my friends Church because she is living near it and we dont have a Pentecostal one near usRe: Church Attendance
The reason ,Gabi that someone visits a person in Hospital is because they feel sorry for them, stuck in there nothing to do ,no where to go, perhaps take in some needy/welcome items. This particular woman is not old, she is a mature student from Nigeria, As she has no family here people from her Church were arrangeing to visit her and see if she needed anything, my friend was one of them and asked me to go with her for company. As this woman often comes to the coffee morning ,which I attend, she does know me, it was only my none show of religion she didnt like . But today she came to coffee morning , having been sent home Sunday, and she thanked me for going to see her in Hospital
