How COVID-19 and death has reshaped my religious practices
Description
I have always practiced my religion but I started to do it less as I have gotten older. When I was younger, I would go to church every Sunday however as I've aged, I do not go as much but I make sure to pray before I go to sleep every night. However, my religious practices changed once the pandemic hit and I had a death in my immediate family. Dealing with grief after losing a loved one is something that I have never experience before and it caused me an immense deal of pain (and still does). But, I've found that because of this, I have started to pray more and attend church a lot more frequently which has helped with dealing with the pain that I feel. My family and I even donated to a COVID-19 relief fund!
