Hello family
My name is Michael and I attend New Life of Albany (UPCI).
I rejoice that God has helped me find this forum and I really look forward to reading and posting.
Most of my life has involved church, but like many "hard heads", I just HAD to go my own way. But like the prodigal son, some sense hit me in the pig pen () and I have returned to my Father's house (ALL GLORY to God and I thank Him for His Grace).
The first scripture God placed on my heart when I came home was Hebrews 12:1 and 2, and I placed part of it in my signiture as a reminder to myself, rather than a admonition to others.
I really look forward to meeting yall and spending time here

Welcome!

Welcome to the AFF family.
Like most families, we're pretty diverse, some you can relate to and some you may not want to be associated with. Remember, we can pick our friends but we can't pick our families.

I was a fellow Georgian for a few months back in the day. Hubby was stationed at Ft. Gordon, Augusta.
Loved the thundershowers everyday at sunset.
Or not...one day we got trapped at KFC for a bit because of flash flooding from one of those thunderstorms. It happened to sit at the bottom of a hill and the water couldn't drain fast enough.
