New York City Mission Trip Day 5

Day 5 in NYC was a good day.  We spent the day at the Lighthouse Inn, which is the place where we are staying.  We spent the morning serving their ministry by painting, cleaning, hanging sheet rock, moving a fridge, and a host of other small projects.  Urban Impact is seeking to plant a church here in the area of the Lighthouse Inn, so in the afternoon, we went to the beach to talk with people and invite them to play volleyball and have a BBQ.  Urban Impact has seen people show a lot of interest in the Lord through the relationships built through playing volleyball and inviting people to BBQ's.  As we were inviting people, it started to storm, and the beach cleared off.  So, we ended up having to cancel our plans in the afternoon.  We continued to do some small projects, as well as spend time with the urban impact staff team.  Although we would have loved to spend time with people from the community, we are trusting the Lord to continue using us a leading us.

Today will be a sightseeing day for the team.  We will spend the day in Manhattan, seeing all of the typical tourist stuff of NYC.  We are looking forward to a fun day!
