Wednesday July 18

We've been having a great time here in New Orleans! Today we went on a tour of the city as well as some of the other Wards.  The Ninth ward was the one hit by Katrina the hardest, we got to see the newly built homes and other saftey precautions that were put up following the hurricane. We also toured the French Market and got some great shopping in! For lunch we went to fantastic seafood restaurant, Oceana. Tonight we are excited for the kickoff of the Youth Gathering at the Super Dome!

Dear God, we thank you for all of the awesome experiences that we are having here in New Orleans.  Thank for watching over us in our travels.  We pray that you continue to work in our hearts as we grow closer to you at the Gathering.  Amen
