	I belg to a Xenos ( pronounced Zeenoz ) Christian Fellowship.  Our
	Meetings are rather casual.  For instance,  We start off our meetings
	with someone playing a song on gitaur, occasionally with a fiddle
	accompaniment (sp?).  Also, No "priests", etc.  Anyway, our group
	uses the New American Standard Bible.  I like these Bibles.  They
	are re-written well. And since we have a person in the fellowship
	who knows Greek, he points out any "bad" traslations.
