Where God Leads

I'll be honest: I have a hard time sitting for two hours in a worship service here in Ecuador. i don't do anything. I need to congregate with other Christians and contribute to the building up of the body of Christ. Since the Pandemic and our decision to stop traveling to Riobamba, we haven't found a nearby church where we can integrate and contribute. We have attended three, but that's all we've done: attend. This morning God reminded me of a nearby church, that we know, and I remembered they are more interested in community service than the worship service. They still hold a service, but in a rented house, and the service is outside under tents.
We arrived late, heard the end of the sermon, and then the announcements. They need volunteers to help teach kids in a school way up in the mountains, east of us. Right up my line: kids, and an indigenous community in the mountains about 45 minutes from here! And the coordinator at the church accepted the invitation to meet at our home this Wednesday to plan. Now that's participating in a church. God leads, we follow.
