The Dairy Game: Sunday Church Routine (19-04-2026)

Hello besties, it’s your girl kemkem1 on Steemit, but my name is Ekemini Edet. I hope you’re all doing well. Today is Sunday, and Sundays are my favourite days because I get to go to church to worship God and also relax when I return home. The highlight of my day was definitely going to church. We woke up early this morning and started with our morning devotion, which set a calm and positive tone for the day. After that, we began our house chores. I went to fetch water, my immediate younger sister swept the house, and my last sister washed the dishes. We all worked together until everything was neat and in order. When we were done, we each took our baths and dressed up nicely, ready for church. My friend was also around, so as we were about to leave, I went to check on her in the room where she slept. When I told her we were heading to church, she became interested and decided to join us. We had to wait for her to shower and get dressed, which delayed us a little, but it was worth it. Soon, she was ready, and we all happily left for church together.

When we arrived at church, we were a little late because we had waited for my friend to join us before leaving the house. By the time we got there, the pastor was already teaching. We quietly found seats and joined the service. The teaching was very interesting and easy to understand. After the teaching, there was a question and answer session, and many people asked questions. The pastor took his time to answer each question clearly, which made the message even more meaningful. After that, other parts of the service were carried out diligently, including prayers, praise, and worship. Everyone participated actively, and the atmosphere was calm and spiritual. The last thing we usually do in my church is to take the Holy Communion, which is always a special moment. After the communion, the service came to a close. I felt truly blessed, and it was an amazing time in the presence of God. Since it was my friend’s first time worshiping in our church, she was directed to the visitors’ room, where she was warmly welcomed and attended to. They shared some information with her and made her feel comfortable. After everything was done, we all left the church premises together and started heading back home, feeling happy and fulfilled.

As soon as we got home, the weather was very hot because we had trekked from the junction where the keke dropped us. Taking a bike from there would have been too expensive for us, so we decided to walk instead. On our way home, we bought some things like groundnut, banana, and cold water. I already had a plan to prepare garri with the groundnut and banana when I got home, and that was exactly what I did. It turned out very delicious and refreshing, especially because of the heat. My sisters and my friend, on the other hand, decided to eat rice with banana. There was well-prepared palm oil rice in the kitchen, so everyone ate what they preferred and was satisfied. After eating, we all gathered and started gisting. The conversation was lively, and we laughed a lot. It was a fun and relaxing moment for all of us after the stress of the day. As we continued talking, one by one, they started feeling sleepy. Before we knew it, they had all slept off, even in the middle of the discussion, leaving the room quiet and peaceful.

I didn’t sleep with them because I wasn’t feeling sleepy at all. I stayed awake for a while, just relaxing and enjoying the quiet moment. After some time, one of my sisters woke up and decided to go and weed her garden where she plants different things. My sister has a very beautiful garden with crops like pepper, pumpkin, scent leaf, tomatoes, and many others. I followed her outside and helped her by packing the weeds and waste while she focused on clearing the garden. It was a bit tiring, but it was also nice working together and seeing how neat the garden looked afterward. When we finished, we both went inside and took our baths to freshen up from the stress of the work. We didn’t feel like eating anything heavy, so I decided to buy peanuts for everyone. It was light and perfect for the moment. We all ate a little and then prepared to rest for the day. The whole day was simple, peaceful, and productive, and I was glad I could spend it with my family. That was all for today. Thanks for reading.
