I have spoken to my pastor now. He knows enough about my situation to already know why I went visiting yesterday. He has no problem with it and has encouraged me to go as often as I'd like. He only asks that I let him know where and when I'm going so he can answer to the other pastor who'll be calling him when I do go visiting.
I guess that's "permission" in a way. He gave me "permission" to do whatever I want to do w/o having to ask his permission.

You should tell your pastor that you were just looking to meet friends, so there wouldn't be any misunderstanding that you were looking to leave the church. He should give you permission to continue and if he doesn't then I would pray long and hard for direction from God on the next step to take.
