Cultural Experiences

In a few towns over, there was a church today having the Uganda Children's Choir singing during their worship service. It would have been a great opportunity for us. We really wanted to go but we ended up going to our own church instead.

I would have loved to have gone but I need to get over feeling guilty about missing our church. There were 3 non-caucasian people in church today and Vienna was one of them. That's not enough. I know it's not enough. It's hard to leave a church because there aren't enough people of other races. We get a lot of support from our congregation.

At what point is it more important to be in a diverse crowd than it is to continue to be part of the people we already know and love? Which is more important and how do we know?
