From My Heart to Yours (Blog 5 revised)


My church back home in Prince George's County is a big cornerstone in my life. The name of my church is ‘From the Heart Church Ministries’ and it is rightfully named so. Originally the church was established in Temple Hills, Maryland and ever since then the church has had a profound effect on the community. The building does not hold as much importance as the symbol of the church does in the community. Due to lawsuits and legal rights we were forced to move out of our old building and into a newly renovated space. A big part of my life was dedicated to this church and the meaning it had in my community. A big part of my life was based on the church I attended. From the Heart was a big cornerstone in my neighborhood. The church was depended on for a multitude of things from spiritual guidance to food to housing. I met most of my good friends because of this church. Families were married, families were buried, and families were healed in this establishment. Even as the form of the building changed year to year the meaning of the church never changed. This church is a valuable part of my community, and its imprint will always be in my community.
