Hello, another new person
Hello all. My name is Diana, and I'm a 30-something mother of five. I just came to Christ about a year and a half ago, and now I consider myself a fledgling or beginner Christian with a lot to learn! When I was growing up, we didn't go to church much, only on holidays, so coming at this as an adult is really different, but I find a lot of joy in my quest, too. Right now, I'm concentrating on reading the Bible. I've probably had a Bible in my house or bookshelf my whole life, but only gave it cursory glances before. Now, I'm starting with the Gospels.
My biggest concern right now is getting my children interested in coming to church and learning about Jesus. I'd really love for them to be saved. My eldest three were baptized as infants but none of the children have had much of a Christian background, I'm sorry to say. I'm on a mission to change that. I'd also really like to find believing friends. Right now, I don't have many Christian friends at all, just a few acquaintances. Please keep me in your prayers about that, since I could use the support. I'm presently back to school to finish my degree and home with the kids the rest of the time, so some Christian social time would be great.
