Personal Narrative: Church's Lion Dance

93 Words1 Page

When I first joined my church’s lion dance team, I had an empty skill set for lion dancing. My partner and I (two people per lion, a head and a tail) came to every practice full of energy and eager to learn from the best dancers, dubbed “Group 1,” on our team. Now, after years of dedication, we finally earned the “Group 1” title. Through this journey, I have developed a strong passion for lion dancing and hope to use my gifts to inspire my teammates to find their inner “Group 1”

  • Essay: My Experience At Grace Lutheran Church

    1443 Words  | 6 Pages

    Before I discuss my experience at Grace Lutheran Church I feel it would be beneficial to explain my Church Background, so that you can better understand my outsider view of the Sunday morning worship Service I attended. I have been raised in the Baptist/Southern Baptist church my entire life. My parents are from South Carolina, which is also where I grew up, so our idea of Church has always been a small community with a very relaxed atmosphere. I stopped attending the Baptists church when I was 16. I chose to join Bent-tree Bible Fellowship, a non-denominational church.

  • Personal Narrative: Growing Up Christianity

    846 Words  | 4 Pages

    Growing up Christianity had always been part of my life and there was no question about it. My family was christian and the culture that my parents grew up in was heavily religious. However, I personally never had a true connection to Christ at a young age. To me church was the place I went to answer questions in Sunday School and win prizes for it, and that was how I saw it for a long time. It was hard for me to see it has more than that and from the outside I may have looked like the kid had a true connection with Christ by the way I talked in front of the church when my class presented, or the fact that I was able to answer most if not all the questions correctly.

  • Personal Narrative: Creating My Religion

    Creating my own religion, this task does seem pretty fun. Well my religion would be very similar to the army and sports, it will contain structure, a need to compete/exercise, guidelines on how to treat others, and most of all it will be fun. There will be no reliance on a god/s, no prejudice against others and most of all, history will be made by each individual. And what I mean from that, yes there will be history but each person will be in charge of choosing their own paths in life. There will be no guidelines to follow (except to treat others kindly), just the freedom for one to create their own greatness.

    A big part of my leadership experience is my involvement in the student ministry at my church. I am in my second year of being a part of our Student Leadership Team which is lucky enough to have a big hand in the lives of many teens from multiple school districts. As an SLT member we are required to do: announcements, that are done at the start of every night; attend leadership meetings every other week, to talk about future events and our direction as a ministry; and teaching a lesson to the entire ministry, at least once a year. Being on this team has caused me to not only grow as a leader, but to also grow as a person in general. Leadership is now a very important part of my life, whether it is in a formal setting like leading a small group in
