CONGREGATIONNNNNN,

Today was awesome! After keynote and small group, we all had a free afternoon. We ate lunch and then split up to either go rock hopping, walk around the campus, or sleep. The rock hoppers hopped for a very, very long time and Colleen took a nappy nap. After this the group went into Black Mountain for a shopping spree. We all drank coffee instead at the Dripolater. It was the bomb-diggity. After our pizza from My Father’s Pizza, we journeyed to the castle of worship in a far away land, down the hill. “Love.” As it turns out, that is the shortest sermon ever given, we learned that in our much, much longer sermon. Also, we sang One Love by Bob Marley; it was the jam. “The Jesus in us loves the Jesus in you. It’s so easy.” (That’s another song we sang.) Next, the dance party with glow sticks and face paint. In order to gain entry, we were required to make a chant to earn glow sticks for the group and we used Jean Moore’s song about how long we had to wait to eat on the train from New York. “They want us to wait an hour to eat, and if you have to pee pee you better go now.” We learned to open the doors of our hearts today and to carry others while being carried ourselves.

Love,

Joey, Colleen, and Julia
