First Sabbath at church

Today was Lauren's first time at church! We had visited Loomis SDA Church a few times in May and June, just after we moved to the area. Then I was put on modified bed rest for my blood pressures and we were unable to attend services for more than a month. We had actually meant to go to church the week before, but we'd had a rough night that Friday night/Sabbath morning, so we opted to sleep in and take it easy instead. This week, though, we were feeling more refreshed, and it was great to be back at church again finally and so nice to see our new church family again!

Lauren was asleep when we arrived at church, so we just brought her in sleeping in her car seat. She slept for most of the church service and then woke up for a meal near the end of the sermon. Once she was finished eating, the service was over and everyone enjoyed meeting her. One of the head elders, Ed, made sure to give us membership transfer cards to fill in and bring back before we left the church that day. We're so glad we found this wonderful little church family to share our Sabbaths with!
