    I have been to Ohio for 2 weeks. Sharing stories with new friends, enjoying in different sorts of parties are both exciting.However,going to church and listening to sermon is the most impressive part since I came to here.
    I have been to church twice since I came to Columbus.Daniel and Angel, my host family, they are all Christens. First time we went to one community center in the North. Particularly big is that church.I consider it can contain more than one thousand in it.In first one hour, we stood up and sang songs to eulogize god.then is sermon, sermon looks like lecture in our university.Pastor came and stared talking about the suffering we have now, and how we should face it.All the pain you have now is the test god give you. If you have a living hope, a true hope, you can pass this test and survive more strongly.He also quote different examples to illustrate his point.That sermon really relax me and made my heart stronger. Because at that time I had to face various kinds problem since I just arrived America for one week.
    Moreover, I got some friends in church.Maggie,a Italian American is one of them. Especially loquacious she is when she describe herself.she will go to India with some
Others in church to help peoples there in this December.I also meet our instructor Eric Benson who is also a Christen at the time I go to church with my host family.How small the world is. HAHA
