\"???????????????????????????????\"<\/a> \"???????????????????????????????\"<\/a>This morning Judy and I went for a walk and on the way back I saw a shed that seemed to be set up with pews as if it were a church.\u00a0 I looked inside and I could see an Anglican Mother\u2019s Union banner.\u00a0 It is less than a block away and I walked for half an hour to get to the Presbyterian Church I went to on Sunday.\u00a0 Yet I had asked the staff at our hotel about an Anglican Church and they hadn\u2019t seemed to know.\u00a0 And would they have directed me to this very humble Anglican Church if they had known it was there?\u00a0 Or was this one considered unacceptable for a Western visitor? \u00a0I decided that as our church is open for visitors, I would assume this one was too.\u00a0 It had no door to keep us out. \u00a0This was the very simplest of worship spaces; still looking magnificent with Bird of Paradise and Heliconia flowers in large vases inside and a vine with yellow flowers growing over the roof.\u00a0 Purple cloth lined the walls.\u00a0 The dirt\u00a0 floor was covered in tiny white stones or coral.\u00a0 We went in and sat for a while in silent prayer.\u00a0 Children came over and sat with us, but after a little while an adult called them away.\u00a0 I wish I was still here this Sunday, to worship there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
