We walk in and immediately feel judged. We were rambled off a bunch of different times of educational classes & all we came for was service time and school questions...then the interrogating questions about when our wedding date was since we have a baby on the way... I don't understand how this is her business seeing that shes clearly not being invited as we never met her before. We shared our love story with her and she was the only person ever to not seem intrigued or excited, but more so blank and spiritless. Arent we in the house of the lord?...I was confused... and we both felt criticized. Next interrogating question was "so where are u currently going?"...now it was not what she asked, but HOW. She wanted us to feel bad because we chose to have our 1 year old baby in our wedding and that we werent currently going to church. Well, not everybody is ready right away, besides we pray every single night and read the bible at home. God lives thru us and we still worship Christ. Just because we dont do it in their living room doesn't make it wrong. That 1st lady quickly dismissed us without a nice good bye. The 2nd lady seemed very pleasant and talked alot about times and classes (which we already went over and had 4-5 pamphlets)...! Sheesh! They seemed resistant because we were pregnant and had awhile to go b4 enrolling our baby in preschool, but it might take us a few years to decide on our babies school...furthermore, I asked her what the sports program was like and she handed us off to some nice man who was super enthusiastic about the sports program. Nice guy, I must admit, but we did not feel as if we were being listened to for what our exact needs were... There were no sincere interesting questions for us, just interrogating ones. Everyone seemed either disinterested or a little hyper. We came for compassion and open ears. We fell short of what we came for. We did not feel the spirit of Christ. We will pray tonight to ask for direction from the lord to guide us to a humble home that matches our core values (those that dont judge, as the Lord teaches)....baffled & disappointed to say the least, but we will pray.
