Didn't know if it was allright to post this here, so please forgive me if I'm out of line.
I am a member of the LCMS, have been since I was 13, but am not a practicing member.
When I was 27, I joined the Mennonite church (is that a no-no to bring up another denom in here?:cool: )
I look forward to learning more about everyone!

Menonite------we got barrels of them around here. Great group. Even though I don't know much about the denom I sure like their work ethics and their family, cohesive values. I know that in each seperate group they have different ways of conducting themselves. In the group around here they dress like Amish.

Years ago I was thinking about joining them but when I saw how hard working they are, I passed. I'm saving myself so I don't wear out so fast :)

They also must have a zillion Menonites named Yoder. :)

You all seem like a friendly group of people.

Since I'm new here, could someone please explain the "health" thing?
Mine is at 32%, and I don't know if that means I'm :sick:, :sleep: , or in a coma and don't know it yet!

Thanks

I see! Gotta keep up the quota or else.......

Just what DOES happen if it gets to 0%?

Welcome!! I'm a closet Lutheran, too. Learning more every day, by the grace of God.

One step closer, each day, to God;
Learning, though oft on roads rough trod.
With lessons sharp as jagged rock,
I yearn for safety of hallowed dock.
But one day soon, my learning done,
I'll see my Saviour, the Blessed One.
And in His face I long to see,
Eyes full of love regarding me,
Those precious words upon His lips,
"Well done, my child! Now look at this!"
And hand-in-hand He'll take me to
Mansions made for me and you.
No receipts that bare our names,
Will ever cause us guilt or shame.
Oh, how I'll treasure being there
With Jesus - lovely, true, and fair.
There's none I hold so close inside,
And oft on wings of Love I ride.
So, really, though the road be rough,
He keeps it all from being tough.
For though we think this worse can't get,
The road He travelled? Rougher yet!

Just thought I'd pitch in. First, welcome. And second, the health is just a way to show how active you are on these forums. If you have an average of 3 posts per day, then you will have 100% health. If you post an average of 1.5 post per day, then you will be knocked down to 50% health. Pretty simple right? If you want to increase your post count really fast, you can go to the recreation room. There are subforums for number games, movie games, bible games, etc. I have posted over 100 times in a day before in the blessing exchange forum. It was a blast celebrating Tychicus2's 250,000 post. He gave away 250,000 blessings in his game. It was really fun. Anyway, welcome to CF. May your time here be blessed.
