St. Margaret's Church
I've found a church, which is so exciting! It is called St. Margarets, and it is affiliated with the Anglican church but the service is non-denominational. There were around 40 people (sidenote:I am a really bad estimator) at the service, mostly mzungu, and I felt very at home and comfortable. The service was pretty short, but they have a slightly different kind of service on each Sunday of the month, and this on was the 'Short Family Service' so I think there will be more of a sermon on other weeks. After church I met a LOT of people (I wish I had a better memory for names!) including the pastor David, his wife Elaine, and a guy named John from Iowa who is student teaching at the international school, and some other random people. Everyone was so nice and welcoming! The Pastor and his family invited me over and then gave me a lift to the potluck. In the car on the way I was telling them that I was looking for a morning project that was not on the other side of town, and coincidentally they have been praying for someone who can help in the office doing 'administrative work' for the church! I am going to meet with David tomorrow and try to work out a schedule. I would love to be able to work at the church in the mornings and at the orphanage in the afternoons! It was great to find such a good church community so quickly!
