We gather as citizens with the saints to learn to love like Jesus by practicing discipleship through peacemaking that works for justice.

Day 5 according to Beth's Group

Yee-ye!!!!! We got our Cajun on at the swamp tour with captain Gary! Most of the group held a baby alligator while only a few chickened out. Our afternoon had a scheduled Katrina tour that came to an unexpected twist. A glitch with the bus allowed us an unscheduled visit at the beautiful New Orleans City Park. There we enjoyed ice cream, baton twirlers, and a continued education from Chris the tour guide. He shared his personal story and pictures of the tragic event, but it was clear hope was still alive here in this wonderful city. As our tour came to an end, we ate at the rocking' Hard Rock cafe. There we got the opportunity of starting the adventure of meeting new people from the National Youth Gathering, and our excitement cannot be contained much longer. Prayers for a great day were answered. God is good!!!! All the time :)
