plymouth brethren is love

Excuse me while I lie on the floor, kicking my heels and giggling madly.

On a mostly unrelated note, we have succeeded in moving all our possessions from our old house into our new, and I am still in a daze -- partly because of exhaustion, but also because the new place is just so nice and so big and I can't quite believe I actually live here. The first night in our new bedroom (a bonus room we built above the garage, with a high peaked ceiling) I said to my husband, "I feel like I'm sleeping in a cathedral."

The dining room is also humongous, and we actually have a spare bedroom for guests. So this also means that now we have absolutely no excuse not to be hospitable. I shall look forward to it, I think, once I've found a place for everything...

Re. the holding-hands thing: In my experience (admittedly limited to Washington state and California), there's no overall consensus among Brethren churches on that; it will vary quite a bit from one congregation to another.

Note also that to most of us, the communion meeting is no less the "actual" service than the preaching meeting, and perhaps more so! But it's interesting to see it through the eyes of an outsider every now and then-- thanks.

I'm glad they were at least friendly-- I'd rather be viewed as a decent person with odd doctrines than the other way round!
