NYC TIME

Well it's been my first 24 hrs. in the NYC and man it already feels like 3 or 4 days. I promise you NYC is on it's own schedule. It truly is the place that never sleeps. I have been fortunate enough to already hang out with friends and family. I saw Anita a college friend for lunch yesterday at the famous Sylvia's Restaurant. It's a soul food restaurant in Harlem. We had a great time chatting and eating some great food. It was great to see her and we plan to hook up again this week. Then last night I had the privilege to hang out with my brother and his adorable girlfriend. It was such a blessing to be around family of course and feel at home even though I'm so far away from it. I really enjoyed finally meeting Lian and seeing how God honestly has been working in my brother Artie's life. I love you both!


Artie and Lian took me to the SoHo area and we had dinner at this really unique restaurant. They had the most interesting bathrooms. Check out the picture. I was that tourist who went back to the bathroom to take a picture LOL!! They then took me to the Murder Inc. studio.


Today my missions crew got up and went to church in Brooklyn. It was about an hour ride on the subway. The subway went under the water at one point. In Brooklyn we came out of the subway and in one direction there is the headquarters of a very powerful Jewish leader. So, you saw people headed to temple.Then on the other side of the street, where I was headed, is the area in NY where the Jamaicans live. Simnple seperated by a street. We went to a very small church where it reminded me of my church in Asheville. It was so cool to see the different style of service than I'm used to now at Hungry. God reminded me today that he is a common bond that links us all together. On the way back from church we explored a little bit and got to see Madison Square Gardens. I got some great pictures of a typical day in NYC.








I am preparing tonight for the kids tomorrow, I am anxious to see what God's going to do this week. I may get to see Terrel later on tonight...by the way he's engaged!! I'm so happy for him. Well, Please keep the prayers rolling!
