It all started around October of last year. Our family had been going to this church for 7 years. And for all those years-and before-the church had it's... problems. I wont get into the details of it, but it was bad. Now, we stayed at the church for so long because for a while there we were trying to help the problems. And also because my sibling and I were finally making some friends. And being homeschooled Christians, that can be really hard. But anyway, around October, things in the church started getting bad. Worse than it had been since we had been there. So we decided to leave the church. I don't know about everyone else, but it it me really hard. That church was my extended family(I realize that all Christians are, but I mean on a personal level). So leaving all my friends there was hard. I don't go to public school and see them every day, and with my family, it's not just as simple as setting up a date to see them. You also realize how many of the people truly are not your friends. I feel like I've lost alot.
So now we've been searching for a new church ever since then. Sometimes it feels hopeless.
And through all of this I have been having struggles with my faith making it all the harder.
This isn't meant to be a sob story or anything like that. But sometimes it helps to get it out.
I need prayer.

I'll be praying. I can also totally relate. My family is also home schooled and we do struggle with our parish. I can't tell you how many times we've had to change churches. It seemed like after I made one friend mom decided to move onto another. Instead of looking at it as a bad thing think of how much stronger your relationship with God will become by making this change. Perhaps use this time to strengthen your prayer relationship with Him. God listens. He's the best friend anyone can have. ^-^ God Bless!

I have learned that through this tough time. God has been there for me but I haven't been there for Him if you know what I mean.

I will be praying for you. It will just take time, and I pray that you will be able to continue seeing your friends in one way or another.

I who have also been homeschooled for the majority of his life, can sympathize and will pray for you as well.
