No I don't, same reason as that of the Op, except it's a church with very few members where they all know themselves. 1 Like 1 Share |

Before I use to be shy, but someday, I summed courage and stood up, and I was asked to take all my belongs and move forward to the front seat, where ushers would attend to me, and some light refreshment, lol, come and see mouth watering refreshment, I took home, the next sunday, wen the Pastor asked again, " you know u are coming to this church for the very first time, can you please signify by standing up, I remembered last sunday, I almost stood up again ![]() ![]() ![]() 7 Likes |

I do because I hate lying and do not want to lie in God's presence.... Stand up next time you are a first timer in a church and don't lie in God presence through your action or inaction... #Thanks... 1 Like |

pls don't feel shy or ashame to present yourself for Christ. you never can't tell if that day is when Christ wanted to meet you. first timer is an opportunity to show case who you are, what you have and get what you need from Christ. |

Liberty parish redeem, years back I refused to stand cos I am always simple when I attend church, no makeup or flamboyant dressing, to avoid unnecessary attention. Couple with the fact my church is mostly attended by Imsu students. |
