I’ve been exploring other churches; not because I’m hopping out of my church, but because my responsibilities have lessened at church, so now I’m a free-agent again. And if I happen to let the wind blow me to another service because someone invited me, I can go feeling guilt and responsibility free.
Yesterday I went with T.Lo to check out a church he’s been a part of lately called Kaleo. I pass by the location all the time and never knew there was a church meeting there. They actually used to meet at the Marq-E theater, so this location is a bit new.
The church has about 50-75 people, they have free doughnuts, and the people were very nice. The pastor made me laugh and did a great job of teaching the word at the ripe age of 27. http://www.kaleohouston.com
In my visit with T.Lo, I kept trying to figure out what stage he’ s going through right now. He’s been through many ethnic stages with a focus predominantly on Indian and Asian cultures, but has sent me several pictures of himself in a turban. He explained to me that he doesn’t so much go through phases as much as he keeps adding on things. He says if he was to say he was in a stage, it would be the “reformed” stage. E.V.V. would be so happy. T.Lo and I made an observation that even though the church was small, there were a lot of single guys there. He asked how I thought the church could get more single women to attend.
Pretty crazy problem, huh? Of course after the service, I thought of several guys that I knew that would really like that church. Maybe it was because the pastor used illustrations about He-Man—if it was Barbie, would I have thought about women? Whatever the case, I might visit T.Lo at Kaleo again one day, and bring along a small, reformed, single-lady posse.

Maybe I shouldn't have published that info until I found a boyfriend. Great! Now there's going to be competition. Did I say Kaleo? I meant Lakewood. Yeah, Lakewood...

aha! Interviewing me for Blogging material, eh?!? Now I know why you were asking me so many questions.

I think you actually interviewed me, but I won't argue about it since I published info w/out getting your approval first.

Just found this post - it popped up on my google alerts. Glad you enjoyed your time with us - you are always welcome to bring a posse of reformed-theology-loving single ladies. We're preaching through Song of Solomon starting Feb. 18 (calling it "Between the Sheets") - would love to have a room full of single folks. :)
Thanks for the kind words! -Pastor Bill
