Why are Methodists in such a hurry to leave???

For us the organized coffee times make a huge difference. I'm sure a lot more people would leave sooner if there wasn't a good place to go to visit. You can't just stand around in the sanctuary when another service is starting in 15 minutes.

I recently converted to Methodism. Got baptised in the same church about two weeks before the quarantine.

Non-forced personal interaction (e.g. job) is kind of hard for me, but I'm getting better at it.

Being the new guy in any church can be hard at first but it sounds like you have a very welcoming faith community. I hope that you continue to flourish and grow in Christ on this journey.

Thank you! I appreciate it! I'm definitely liking everything so far. Even with the quarantine
