Eighty-five Sundays

dragged his suitcase to the gate of the community, and was about to take a bus. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoA big Buick stops next to it and honks the horn straight! Yu Mengjin turned his face and looked: it was Lin Yongyi and his wife.

"Xiaoyu gets in the car and gives you a ride!" Lao Lin greeted him warmly.

Yu Mengjin replied with a smile: "More friends is convenient!" "Stuffed my luggage into the back of the car and got into the car. When he saw that there were only Lin and Shu in the car, he asked, "Where are you going?" Xiaoyu doesn't follow you? ”

"Xiaoyu is at his grandmother's house, and we go to church for service." Shu Lihan has all questions.

"Church worship? It's Sunday? "I've been at home all the time, and Xiaoyu doesn't have the concept of the day of the week.

"Come with us to see...... "Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles!" What's more, the two are close at hand? Teacher Shu wasted no time in sending out an invitation: "Alas...... I've heard about you! The Bible is clear: Marriage is God's union, and human hands cannot be separated! Love is patient and gracious......"

Yu Mengjin was impatient with her pervasive preaching, but when she heard the sentence "Love is eternal patience and kindness", she couldn't help but think: eternal patience, eternal patience...... Can some things be endured? Can you endure it again and again, and endure it for a long time? Is there such a person in this world?

Shu Lihan continued to bomb: "...... Don't seek your own good, don't get angry easily, don't count people's evil ......" Hearing these unheard lessons, Yu Mengjin couldn't help but think: I not only calculated Shen Yijia's evil, but also became angry easily, am I seeking my own good like this?

Lin Yongyi saw that he had been silent, and asked with concern: "Xiaoyu, are you okay?" ”

"Huh?! …… No, no, no ......" Yu Mengjin came back to his senses: "I'm just thinking about the meaning of Mr. Shu's words." ”

Shu Lihan saw that this neighbor, who had always been stubborn, began to be moved by the "Word of God", and immediately became interested, and said with a high spirit: "The Bible has given us all kinds of teachings, and it will definitely help you!" Let's listen to the sermon......"

Lao Lin added on the side: "And the music of the church is also very good-Xiao Yu used to play music, it should resonate......"

"Playing music is a hobby...... How long will it be spoken? The church music in Yu Mengjin's impression is "Ode to Joy" and "Messiah...... That kind of traditional poetry that is more solemn and more than sung.

"Normal, uh...... It's usually less than an hour and a half. Teacher Shu immediately stammered and answered.

"Okay...... I'm going to see what the Lord has for me. Xiao Yu deliberately used the professional words that believers like to hear the most.

With his unremitting efforts, there are catechumens who are willing to go to church: Shu Lihan's eyebrows are dancing and she is in a happy mood! The journey was short, and twenty minutes later, as soon as the car entered the city, it was parked in front of a tall building. Yu Mengjin thought he would go to the city center: the church with a pointed roof and a cross on it. Who knew that this church was on the third floor of a commercial building. He followed Lin and Shu into the door, and met the reception staff downstairs, smiling and sending the party flow list. He looked at the 16-page copy sheet of paper with a brief score of the hymn being sung today, as well as some Bible verses—the subject of the sermon at the end, and the name of the speaker: Sister Wu Meifeng.

Xiao Yu thought to herself: Sister? Can a woman preach on the platform? Well...... Women are presidents! It seems that the feminist movement is pervasive in all fields, and even places like the church where male power is supreme are not exempt......

Entering the main venue on the third floor, there were already many people sitting inside. Yu Mengjin looked at the space of less than four hundred square meters, and all the folding chairs were arranged. Because the stage in front of it occupies a large area, it is crowded with more than 300 people. As Mr. Shu said, young people account for the majority here! Xiao Yu saw that on the wall opposite, a wooden cross was pasted upright, and a white curtain was hung next to it, and the PPT content was marked. Spotlights are also installed on the ceiling. The red-pink lights are sprinkled down, as if it were the live effect of a cabaret performance. On the right side of the stage stand electric pianos, guitars, and basses...... The band has all four major pieces.

"There are concerts here every week?" As soon as the three of them sat down, he couldn't help but ask.

"We started our Sunday worship with hymns of praise every time. Then the sermon ......," Shu Lihan replied in a low voice.

At this time, there were already one or two hundred people, but everyone sat quietly on the chairs, and no one made a loud noise, so Teacher Shu deliberately controlled his volume.

By nine o'clock, the hall was full of hundreds of chairs—at last two men and two women were leading the congregation on stage with microphones—all of them were simple, catchy melodies, similar to pop music. The same goes for the composition of the band and the use of instruments. If you don't read the lyrics, you pass downstairs and think it's a support band invited by a commercial event.

Although the sound system made the atmosphere of the venue lively, the level of singing was really limited. Yu Mengjin could only snicker--Teacher Shu was full of joy when he saw him smiling: thank the Lord for soothing his wounded heart......

However, to Xiaoyu's surprise, among the two girls who sang above, one of them seemed to be an old classmate and old colleague: Liu Manling. But after many years of not seeing each other, and there was a distance of twenty meters in the middle, he didn't dare to make a rash conclusion.

The singing with a serious distraction lasted for almost half an hour - Yu Mengjin felt that he was the only one who was suffering, and the people around him were moved to tears one by one, and he thought to himself: Is it okay to sing like this? No wonder there are rumors on the Internet: the audience in those singing shows are all professional actors, and the prelude is together, and there are tears for any effect! Could it be that there are also actors ...... here?

One of the male lead singers also doubles as the host. At the end of the singing part, he set aside a few minutes for everyone to wipe their noses and tears. By the way, he brought up a small wooden pulpit and said aloud: "The theme of this week's sermon - why trust Jesus." The one who preached for everyone is: Sister Wu Meifeng. ”

There was no applause from the audience, Xiao Yu wanted to applaud politely, but seeing that the people next to him were taking out paper and pens to prepare for the record, he was inconvenient to make a mistake.
