In my worship setting I am a minority. There are several things that are similar to my experience in the African American church. Sacraments are observed with the same level of intimacy and respect. Some of the songs are very familiar in nature and some are even sung the same.
What I miss is having a choir to set the atmosphere. I also miss having the talk back during the sermon, so that you know that people are engaging. I think I miss that as much as I do not having a choir. I pray for balance, wisdom and the opportunity to be me in my skin.
