Sunday is the Lord’s Day. It
is the day to
worship God. In the beginning our church services were held outdoors. We
simply draped a rail over some trees for shade, and then nailed rails of
wood to trees to make walls. We go to church (sometimes called a
meetinghouse) for several hours in the morning and again for several
hours in the afternoon every Sunday. We also worship God at home.
The only toy that we are allowed to play with on Sunday is a wooden
Noah’s ark.
My family practices the Quaker
religion. The Quakers were the first
religious group in the eastern part of Pennsylvania. My friend Joe and
his family are Episcopalian. Some of the other families in this area are
Presbyterian, Baptist, Mennonite and Schwenkfelder. Back
