This beautiful piece of new furniture is a small piece of church history. Our church has been growing! We recently switched over to a padded chair that allows us to seat more people. No other churches were in need of pews so the church gave away all the old pews to anyone in the church who wanted one. Of course the pews were much longer than this and wouldn't fit in a house really so some of them were cut up and resized. We were able to get a hold of one of the last ones and now we have a piece of church at home. I was thinking the other day about all the prayers, sermons, hymns and praise songs that are embedded in the worn out pew.
