Well last night I went to that class at the UU church in my area. There were about 20 people there. Last night everyone just shared their spiritual journey and how they had gotten to the point that they were at. It was very interesting. Some people had a pull toward buddhism, some toward christianity, some towards nontheist, and some still searching. Everyone just wanted a nonjudgemental community where they could grow and feel free to not have to believe one exact thing. I had never experienced that before. No one cared if I believed what they believed, it was much more about community. I like that. This is all weird to me, because I said I would not get involved in religion again, but lately I have felt so empty and needing something. I still have 3 more classes....I will keep you posted...
The first class.....

Thanks for sharing. My husband has been feeling the urge to start attending some sort of worship service. I am still VERY gun shy, but I have agreed to visit a few places with him. We are going to keep looking until we find a place that is comfortable for both of us. I hope there is such a place.

It's an unusual concept to get used to, eh?
Thanks for letting us in on your studies. Keep us posted.
