Edited August 17, 201510 yr by lachellove

I've went there consistently for about a month and a half. I went throughout the last few years a few time with my friend. It's where she goes to church and that's how I got there. It's a lot of 40+ members or teenagers. Not many members in their 20's so I'm not really involved in anything. I just go to services. I'd like to find somewhere that has more members my age but it's hard for me to get out of my comfort zone.

I think that's excellent. I think you should find a group that fits your needs! Research and pray about it.

our comfort zone can be a hard road block. But you will be fine, that's a great idea to find a more age related crowd .. My church has a variety. Which I love so I understand what you mean. We're here for you through it all. Just a type away lol.

Thank God for this thread. God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. We are making the necessary steps to preserve the temples( our bodies) that he has blessed us with.

Amen. I believe that.

Following. I'm active in church activities, but feel I'm missing something in my faith life. I have joined a bible study group that starts next month. I'm hopeful that will be a bridge.

Yea I've falling on hard times due to faith as well just praying it gets better with time

So glad to see a few in the group.

Me too! I do like this site, it has been very informative on a lot of different levels, but the negativity will also get you down. I like to think I'm a positive person, and that's the support I like to be around. I haven't found anyone more supportive then loving Jesus and being around others that do as well!

Lord, i pray for each person in this group today. My prayer is that we will put all of our trust in you. I pray that we will begin to look to you and not food for everything that we need. ie love, comfort, support companionship etc... Give us the strength to get through the rough days and fill our minds with positivity and joy. We thank you and praise you. Amen

@@cslove AMEN! <3

So happy to see this! I'm still Pre-Op, I start my 2 week diet on Thursday. Surgery is on Sept 3rd. Would love to have some fellowship with Christian Sleevers..

. Yes me too. I was looking for some spiritual support and couldn't find it. So I started this Thread I hope it helps us all on our journey.

I wonder if we could ask Alex to had a Christian WLS Support Group (for any kind of wls) under general surgeries, special interest.
