hey guys there is a "non-denominational" church not to far from my house and there membership has recently grown by leaps and bounds since they became non-denominational. but anyway thats not what bothers me. they seem to do some stuff to me that seemed weird. i always just kinda wrote it off. but recently I stumbled across one of there "meetings" and let me say it was scary. turns out they have these "meetings" out in the woods in this clearing and they play a trumpet to signal the start of the meeting or something but its not like they play a song. they just blast the horn. i dunno but should I be worried that they are some kind of cult brain washing people?

It is a bit interesting though. You could go check it out and then report back.

ive actually been invited before

i think what strikes me as really weird is the fact that the "meetings" are so remote. i mean you have to have a 4 wheel drive to get there. you drive like 30 minutes into the woods. then go down a logging road way back even further to get to the spot.

I'd be cautious to go to one of those meetings. That's just me though. If you plan on revealing that you are a Catholic, be prepared to defend yourself. The non-denominatinal churches by me are especially brutal towards Catholics.

I'm a mother hen and I tell you to not go. Now you're really getting me worried... Please don't go! You never know what can happen. You don't know who these people are about...

All kidding aside, I agree. Don't go. You never know what could happen.
