NYC Day 1

// March 14th, 2010 // Service

Just about nothing has gone right since I left Tampa. I’ve had my flight delayed, sat on a runway, vomited in a subway station and been rained on over and over again in the freezing cold, but none of that can overwhelm the joy and optimism I feel about this coming week.
I’m going to be living the Gospel in New York City in community with an amazing group of people. We are going to help remodel part of a rundown church building into a community center for kids in the Bronx, feed the homeless, volunteer at a gala for an organization that fights the sex trade’ and all other kinds of cool stuff like going to Brooklyn Tabernacle tomorrow. And I get to do all this while serving next to and praying, reflecting, sharing and pursuing God with my group. No amount of rain and cold could dampen my enthusiasm for that.
Keep us in your prayers.
