Tonight I went to a 'community', being, a small group within the church in which likeminded people gather and spent an evening a week with each other and God. I joined the Arts-community, though I am still shopping around looking for other communities I might be interested to join. Tonight however, I joined Studio.
The outset was basically your average Christian gathering, with prayer, a short bible study and talking about what has been said and how that could be applied in your life. I really enjoyed it and some things really hit home, certainly as tonight was yet another confirmation of some thoughts which have been running through my mind for a while now. Anyway, the evening was very pleasant and I felt so at home, so very much like I belonged. This church is really giving me the sense of home which I felt when I first entered Ichtus Leuven, and I hope it will give me the same wonderful result, support and circle of friends. The people I have met so far certainly are really nice and though they all have different personalities, there is something in each of them which I really like. Quirkiness, humor, weirdness or just plain friendliness, each one of these people has a certain quality which just draws me towards them. I have been invited along to some more events and will do my very best to attend these and meet even more of these wonderful people.
On a side note, on Wednesday I'll be getting a couchsurfer from Germany over for two days, I am very excited about it and will tell you all about it once she's here/gone. Also, I have been jobhunting slightly today and have more or less decided I'll either look for work in a bar or restaurant around here or get a job at Tesco's, as both are conveniently located and not a bad pay. But more on that once I succeed in nailing a job or applying a little more.
Also went shopping today, very pleasant, explored the neighbourhood a little and found a lot of charity shops, in which I was sure to buy two books for a pound, a real bargain!
Now, off to bed, busy day tomorrow.
Tesco! 24/24, 7/7... en heel veel typisch Engels eten. Doen.
ReplyDeleteHeb gisteren voor net iets meer dan tien pond gekocht:
ReplyDelete- Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (hardcover!!!) (die twee boeken beide in een charity shop, samen een pond)
- Twee flessen van dat soort aanlengspul dat ik ook had gekocht in Schotland
- Twee pakken cheddar
- Een pak met zes kleine worstenbroodjes
- Fake-Lactacyd
- Twee Chicken-Mushroom slices (soort Hotpockets, als je dat kent)
Heerlijk, toch!
Hotpockets ken ik en Lactacyd ook.
