Just started at college and looking for a church.
Hey all. As the title suggests I've moved up to college and am having trouble finding a decent church to attend.... there is a Christian Union but the members generally come from all kinds of churches (apart from Catholics who have their own group.)
So far I've checked out the Catholic and Baptist churches, Catholic Mass was interesting and I enjoyed it - very strict and quite ritualistic of course but the university chaplain is an absolutely wonderful lady, but I'm wondering if 'going to Rome' would be a bit heretical as their doctrine's a bit different.
At the Baptist Church, it was nice and the people were friendly and there was bread & soup & cake & tea afterwards which was lovely, they also suggested going on the Alpha Course starting on Tuesday which would be a good place for me to dicuss Christianity and I could learn a bit more hopefully.
Any help or advice? I could check out some other places but I figured most will be fairly similar in worship styles so I don't think there's much point. Free feel to speculate/talk about your own experiences at college etc.
God bless all.
