My name is Pam and not only am I new member here but am also a fairly new Christian.  I was raised in a home where we went to church but nothing to back it up after church.  At the age of 35, I found myself wondering why I was making my children go to church and I was not.  My son was baptized and I had to go.  Now, I love my church, preacher, and the Lord.  It's wonderful to serve the Lord individually but it's really great to serve him as a family.  I have found more joy over the last 4 months!  One of the greatest things just happened the other night when my 18 month old was saying his prayers before bed.  When I was done praying with him, I said Amen.  He then tried it but it came out Ma Men!  He went around all day today saying it whenever I did.  What a blessing!
