Grandmother and aunt visit church
 

Last Wednesday my grandmother visited church with me. Before we left we invited my aunt to attend. She asked if it’s a Pentecostal church. I afirmed that it is. She kinda made a face -and declined. She said that she was going to stay home (she moved in recently, relocated from CA) and read the bible. I doubt that even happened. :lol

My grandmother enjoyed church, for the most part. She said that the people were very friendly. However, she did not return today. I think she was put off by something. She’s used to mass.

Today my aunt INVITED herself to attend church with me. She did enjoy it. She was hesitant when I told her the service is in Spanish. I don’t see the issue -she speaks Spanish. My aunt stated that the people were nice, REAL christians. :)

Hermano invited my aunt to Thursday night cell group. I pray that she visits. My grandmother enjoyed the times she atteded. Maybe she’ll also visit!

A lot of older catholics miss the solemnity of the old school mass, so sometimes have a hard time adjusting to Novus Ordo (new mass) services, let alone a typical Pentecostal service.

I hope they continue to visit.

Pray and fast in secret and God will reward you openly.

How’s your abuela and tia? Did they visit again?

No. My grandmother was put off by something. I haven’t asked.

My aunt.., well, her son came from Arkansas to visit for a weekend. I had mentioned that his mother visited church with me. He asked if she liked it. I said that she did. She interrupted with, “I didn’t say that I liked it.”
So there’s that.
