WOW.
today? we attended church...but not your everyday type of church that most of us are used to back home. This church was Neopentecostal...and it was extreme.
The church service itself was 2 hours long, with about an hour or so of prelude music. The music was very upbeat and modern, and the altar looked more like a performing arts stage. That pastor, once he got on "stage", looked confident and powerful. The congregation was HUGE and reacted to their pastor's confidence and power as if he were almost...a god....
The pastor's preaching was passionate and LOUD. He was screaming at some points causing come of the congretation to cry and praise for joy.
Then, the offering? Consisted of something that looked like a conga line up to the offering boxes.....
Let's just say: interesting. I am sure we all will have stories once we arrive home.....
3 days!
