NY Trip: Day 1

Today was a day of travel. We arrived to the hotel around 4:45pm and headed out the church around 5:30. The trip overall went alot smoother and seemed alot shorter than I had imagined it would. I have to say the most surprising part of the day was the food they had for us tonight. The food is being cooked by an actual chef that works in the city. I am used to pizza or other food that is thrown together, but not tonight. We had roast beef with a mushroom sauce, peas, and garlic mashed potatoes.

After dinner we got together for a time of worship. Pastor Eddie did a great job of laying out again why we are here, pointing us back to the power of the gospel and how proclaiming it to the people here is the purpose in us coming. I covet your prayers for us while we are here. Tomorrow we will be painting a house in the community and the rest of the week we will be out in the community engaging the people of the area. Pray that God move in a mighty way among the people we encounter.
