An Ethnic Worship Service

This morning's worship service at church was an amazing blend of ethnic styles and songs.  These flags graced the portico...

...and were carried into the sanctuary at the beginning of the service.  Drew led the procession, carrying the Christian flag.  As I've mentioned before, our church has members and attenders from many different countries.  To see my friends proudly carrying in the flag from their country of origin, dressed in native attire, gave me an incredible feeling of pride.


While the entire service was just amazing, my favorite part was when the children's choir and the adult choir sang together.  The children's choir sang the classic Christian hymn Of the Father's Love Begotten while the adults sang an African worship song in Zulu.  It truly was a little bit of heaven on earth.
