                     The curiosity was obvious in her eyes,while she was entering the church, the church were full of people,and again the different perfumes of the roses, came from the the different ladies, while she was passing between their rows ,to sit on a seat ,where a girl about the twentieth years of her age, led them,her eyes were moving here and there ,as if to ask a questions, her questions were emotional, what was her feelings then ,.let us ask her eyes, those two pearls in her face,were moving towards the windows, the windows were about two meters width and four meters height , with colored glass, which allows a different colors of rises ,five of them were on her left hand, and the same number on her right hand ,A high place in front of her ,where the choir members were standing in three rows ,at the left side over the high place the rows of the men ,at the right side were the rows of the girls ,between them a little high table where some one standing, covering his face with his hands, praying in silence, he was sure the pastor of the church ,she also closed her eyes to pray in silence, she dismissed all her thoughts out of her mind, and began to contact her creator ,her keeper,her real father but her real continuous friend,his name is God of all ages,   A little minutes passed on,she opened her eyes to see,the face of the pastor,it seemed to be familiar,but she couldn't remember,who was he, he began to speak,also his voice was familiar but she couldn't distinguish it ,it was not a problem ,who was he ,she must listen carefully,using both by her mind ,and her heart ,to understand the word of the life,he was welcoming his audience, inviting them to the worship , giving a summary of the program,and welcoming the visitors of the church ,then the worship began ,    The sermon touched the heart of Miss "L" deeply,she forgot that she was a visitor, something made her felt that she was in a familiar church, with a familiar group of worshipers .   After the end of the worship ,she sat at her seat beside her friend Mme"C" ,waiting their chance to went out ,after the long rows of the worshipers,her friend told her that she might meet her son with his wife, after exiting from the church, in the out yard hall of the church ,the eyes of Miss "L" reflected some happiness ,with some comfort,but her friend knew what was in Miss"L"'s eyes and mind, therefor she added" but that is not the surprise"she said with a smiley face, Miss"L"'s eyes returned to reflect her different expectations, while the same girl who have led them to their seats, came to led them to the row of the outgoing worshipers,they moved slowly ,until they have reached to the pastor ,who was standing at the door ,to salute the worshipers one by one .   It was a big surprise ,while she was saluting the pastor, when the light smile of his face ,changed to astonishment, with a more high scale in his tone, to call Miss"L" by her name, without any need of Mme"C". it was a big surprise sure,.  She remembered his voice,and remembered his face, her weak eyes were not able to notice that in the church,his voice along the microphone was also different ,he was one of past members of their church where he  , Miss"L" and Mme"C" passed there time from the childhood to the adulthood ,thirty years ago.    He invited them to his office after some time ,with Mme"C"'s son and his wife .They accepted the invitation and exited to meet Mme "C"'s son and his wife---------------------    Followed Rev.
