10. Are you on a ministry team at your church or do you have your own ministry?
What type is it? I'd been away from the church for some time until about 3 years ago. As soon as I we began attending a church, I jumped into every music ministry I could but we didn't stay at that church long. After finding the church we attend now, I realized that I need to be still and wait for God to tell me what to do. I am still patiently and blessedly waiting.
