Lord.....help us

So we went to church yesterday. (yeah for us!) We tried out an Assembly's of God Church - not the kind of church either one of us has ever gone to - but we thought 'what the heck.' Our first impression upon entering the nursery of the church was that it was nice. The pastor's wife greeted us and immediately insisted that we take the grand tour of the place. More out of obligation, we went along. It was really a neat church - with lots and lots of activities and such. We were impressed of how nice they were. So we finally break away from the really sweet yet very talkative pastor's wife and get into the service. The praise and worship (music) started. Well it took us a whole 5 seconds to figure out that the music lacked....well I hate to be mean but....the lead singers sang her heart out (God Bless her) but she drowned out the rest of the band. I wouldn't call her a Grammy winner by any means...(I'm really trying to be nice here.) As far as the rest of the band, all we could hear is drums - their sound guy really needs to make a good balance of all instruments and mics. After nearly an hour of that, the sermon finally started. The pastor is a sweet guy. The thing is, his sermon was kinda boring. He is one of those guys who tries to be funny but well....(again trying really darn hard to be nice)...
I guess we weren't impressed. The last church we went to in Phoenix, was incredible and awesome in every way. It makes finding another church that much harder!!
Well we tried - perhaps we'll go again - we really want the fellowship. At least Preston had a blast!
