    Every Sunday morning for Sunday School and Worship Service when I'm home or Campus Church if I stay at my apartment, and Wednesday night for either Campus Church or Bible Study, and when we're home for breaks, the College Girls have coffee and Bible Study on Thursday nights.

    When I lived on campus, we had required Chapel on MWF.  Off-campus students aren't required to go.

    Even with FI being a Youth Pastor, the number of times we're in church a week won't be any different, with the exception of Sunday nights for Youth Group.

    Sunday mornings I have Worship Team practice, then young adults Bible study, then the church service. Thursday nights I have Worship Team practice. Sometimes we will go random nights if there's a dinner,special event, etc. Oh, and also once a month I have worship and music committee meetings.

    I try to go every Sunday.  But it can be inconvenient at times, as it starts at 9 AM.  Some of the services can also last 2.5 hours, and there's no seats in my Orthodox church except for the old and sick, so if I know I have to do something where I can't be tired, I don't go.

    I don't  Embarassed

    H works every Sunday.  We changed churches right before he got this schedule and I don't really know anyone at our new church.  I have really bad social anxiety so I just don't want to go.  Add to that the fact that Sunday is the only day I get to sleep in and I never make it.  Which is stupid because it's practically in our backyard.  I always say I'm going to start going but never do.

    We have been looking for a church we can attend together on Sunday evenings but it's slim pickin's around here.

    Every Sunday. There is Sunday School, but we live 45 minutes away, so we just go to the regular service. DH is the pianist. We also have the occasional get together at the church on a weekday evening, like a couple's dinner.

    Interestingly, though, and probably not actualy what is meant by the question, but DH has actually ALSO been at church all day Monday through Friday for the past month or so. He's in construction, and they're expanding the sanctuary. ;)

    I used to go on Sunday mornings and Wednesday Nights - Our church doesn't have sunday evening services, but after this semester started at school - I have class on Wednesday nights so I can only go Sunday Mornings. 

    Occassionally, I do go during the week because I'm in charge of the church library, and I organize it and process info.

    I try to go every Sunday but I'm not the best at it. I usually get there between 2-3 times a month Embarassed I can't wait until I move in May and find a church that we'll be at for a while so I can plug in!

    Sunday mornings for Sunday School, Sunday evenings for choir practice and preaching. 

    Tuesday evenings for churchwide prayer.

    Wednesday evenings for Bible Study and kids' classes.

    Saturday evenings for Spanish services.

    We recently moved down south so are no longer attending church regularly. When we lived back up north at home, we attended church every Sunday and went to a marriage study with one of our elders and his wife before we were married once a week. Now that we've moved, we've been searching for a new church to call home, and we haven't found the right fit yet. We're going to another new church this week, so we'll see what God has in store for us. The great thing about moving down here is there are so many choices for churches. Where I come from, most people are Catholic, but down here there are a ton of non-demoninational churhes to visit and find the right one.

    Right now?  Every sunday morning for church, sometimes Sunday night depending on if I'm nursery or if I'm participating in an elective. 

    Monday nights are young adults dinner (which happens at someones house, but includes discussion, prayer and worship)

    Tuesday nights I lead Youth so I'm at the church.

    Thursday night (up until next week) I am at the church coaching Upward Basketball. 

    Saturday afternoons we have Upward Games.

    Hmm...

    Sunday AM church, usually 2 services with sunday school in between (I'm in the choir)
    Monday ladies' fellowship- Zumba dancercise / work-out class
    Wednesday - choir practice

    We also have special musical guests come on Sunday evenings about once a month, and sometimes we have church-wide dinners and banquets, usually on Saturdays, about 6 or 7 times a year, I would guess.  

    I am not a saint by any means... just trying to stay plugged in to my church where my talents are best used, which for me is in music.  :-)
    July 16, Our Wedding Day, is also International Juggling Day!

    I go sunday mornings, but unfortunately my FI has to work sunday mornings, so he goes with me to church on sunday evenings.  We also go to pre-marital counseling and have bible study wednesday nights.  So I go 3 times, and he goes twice a week.

    Our bodies don't go anywhere.  FI and I watch his home church service online, in real time. 

    We are prayful that FI will get his internship in Richmond so we can start going in person.  I also want to join one of the choirs, though I'm afraid I'm not good enough.  I  don't know how often they rehearse, but when I was in a church choir in grad school we practiced once a week.
  • I don't either.  Embarassed

    I'm just now getting back on track, learning to trust God and pray (for the first time in QUITE some time I prayed last night).  I know it's silly but I watch VeggieTales when it's on, or when I feel like putting it in, and if I'm flipping through channels and someone is preaching (which they have them on one channel almost all the time) I'll stop and listen.  Baby steps.  If you would have asked me if I'd be on this board 6 months ago I'd laugh and say, "Yeah.  Right."  All in God's timing I'm definitely being reminded.  :)

    I go three times a week to something church-y related. Sunday is church. Wednesday is Bible study. Thursday is Navs (the on campus ministry at my college)

    H and I go every Sunday.  We aren't in a church buidling, though!  We live in China and hold church in a friend's living room.  (The other alternative in the three-self church, which isn't a good option in our city.)

    Well, when I'm at college (right now), I go on Sunday morning and evenings, and I go to a Wednesday night prayer meeting, which is sometimes at the church, sometimes at member's homes. When I'm home, I'll go for Sunday morning, Sunday evening when there's a service, and Tuesday nights to help with the kids program. I sometimes also help FI with whatever work he's doing at the church during his spare hours in the week, like weeding and whatnot.
