Now this is religion. Every Sunday there is a non-denominational service in an open air bure on the sand. It starts with drums, keyboard, guitar and singing. Then there is Children's Church. The kids all gather on a mat. The Pastor, Chris, is animated, engaging, and connects with the kids asking questions and talking - gently leading them to his lesson for the day. More songs just with the kids, then he leads a short prayer. When Children's Church is over, they are dismissed and go frolic behind us in the sand or over in the grass and the adult portion of the service begins. The pastor speaks beautifully and with a broad knowledge of many religions. I feel uplifted, focused and thoughtful at the end. It's really a lovely way to spend our Sunday mornings.
