I attended a church for almost nine years and most of the people there didn't appreciate anything.  They just didn't care.  The Pastor wasn't given respect like he should have been given.  The members used to take advantage of him because he was so nice and kind to everyone.  He used to buy members and non members food, give people money and never asked for it back.  Sometimes he would be very sad cause people wouldn't show up to Bible class or for Friday night worship.  They always had excuses. 

I used to contribute so much time there, taking pictures of the congregation and making beautiful posters for the church.  The more I gave the more they wanted and then they used to get an attitude if I tell them that I didn't have much ink or enough paper to do my projects for them.  I never accepted anything from any of them because I did these things from my heart and that's what I loved to do. 

When my husband and I got married there hardly anyone gave us any gifts at all.  The pator just kept saying that the people didn't have much money.  The members had money for what they wanted to have money for.  My husband and I used to pay our tithes, give offering and we was told that we have to pray for the other people cause they've been doing the same thing before we ever came there.

Anyway the last thing we did for the church was bought new curtains, tablecloths, cleaned the eating room where everyone eats and never clean up, fixed the blinds that people kept bending to look out the window.  The people just didn't care what we did.  They were very unappreciative. 

We no longer attend that church.  The Pastor passed away earlier this year and his wife and son took over.  We attend a church where people care and accept us just for attending there.  They are very respectful and they are very considerate of others.
