| Team at the CP Center. Jason, our tour-guide, in the front in the Mets hat. |
Today we started doing ministry work. We heard this awesome word this morning by Pastor Peter about how we have to touch the unclean to bless them, and also about what Jesus does in cities. The first thing Pastor Peter said is that Jesus went into the city, secondly he shows compassion, and thirdly he brings a level of confrontation. As we follow Jesus's example in these things we are invading the darkness just like he did. Soon after our session with him we met our guide Mr. John who assisted us in our trip to the New York Cerebral Palsy Center. There we met Jason, our funny guide who is also a patient at NYCPC. During our time there we got to sing, meet, and talk with the patients. After the tour we met the Vice President of the organization, who gave us a history about the center and told us about the new building and location they are moving into this September. The whole experience was a blast and I just felt like God was really grabbing my heart regarding keeping our hearts open and staying away from complaining. There are people who are not like us but still worship him. To him we are all made to minster to different people. God loves us, we love him, and we are called to love people.
