My Experience: A Trip To A Catholic Church

I grew up in a catholic environment where we went to church every Sunday around noon. A Catholic Church is the only church I’ve ever been too, so over my spring break, I got the chance to visit a Presbyterian church. When it comes to the religion Christianity there are so many other religious branches that fall under there, Presbyterian being one of them.

I felt like the service consisted mostly of everyone singing gospel songs together, which I didn’t mind because I enjoy singing. Overall, I have to say I really enjoyed the service and I’m glad I got to experience
