Sweet Fellowship...

So.....today is our second day in the Big City and it has been wonderful thus far! Yesterday, we arrived safely in White Plains around 2 pm after a bumpy plane ride, and we went straight to the hotel to check in. After that, we got some dinner and then it was off to work in a neighborhood that one of the church planters lives in. We broke up into groups and went out to do some surveys. My group had pretty much no success, but we didn't let that get us down! We had a joyful heart and spirit and we know that God is in complete control of this new church that is starting and that He has a wonderful plan for White Plains, NY! Then after a long day's work and travel, it was OFF TO BED!

This morning, we got up and left the hotel at 7:45 AM to head toward the city for church and worship. We got to take the train from White Palins to Grand Central, which was BEAUTIFUL! After taking a few subways here and there, we got off in Manhattan and headed to Hunter College and attended the services of Redeemer Pres. Now, we had heard great things about this church, but they had a guest speaker this Sunday...so it was just alright! Then we took a stroll down Park Ave and went to a quaint little French restaurant for lunch. While we were there, we had the opportunity to partake in some SWEET FELLOWSHIP with 5 of our LBC interns and one wife! It was so great to finally see them and give hugs and hear reports and encourage them! Each one of our interns is such a blessing to me and our church body!

After lunch, we headed back to the subway station and, after a few detours and car changes, we headed to Brooklyn for the Gospel Celebration at Brooklyn Tabernacle at 3:30. I have one word, AMAZING!!!! I had chills the whole time! That hour and a half was such a God-glorifying time of worship and I feel so blessed to have been given that experience. WOW! We stayed in Brooklyn for supper and went to the world famous Juniors Cafe. Known primarily for the cheescake, it is also a diner. The food was good and the cheesecake is definitely worthy of its fame. That was some goodness. I know my brother would have been in heaven! When we finished supper, we got back on the subway and headed back for Grand Central to catch the north train back to White Plains. I just wanted to post alittle something and some pics and just let you know that I am still alive. Love you guys. Keep praying for us as we go out each day this week. We want to see Jesus lifted high! God is sooo good..... :)

ps...pics will be posted when computer stops acting retarded! Sorry!
