New Orleans, LA

Found a church to attend. It's called The Chapel. It's non-denominational and the style of worship is pretty contemporary. Quite thankful that the messages are sound and the people are welcoming. Our host, Peggy was really accomodating and hospitable. Really thank God for her, and the love she's shown us. She actually fetched us to and from our accomodation, and told us that if we needed anything, we only need ask.

They're organising a trip to New Orleans, Louisiana from 18-24 June, to help out with relief efforts after Hurricane Katrina struck about a year ago. Apparently, up till today, some parts of New Orleans are still in disrepair. Isaac, Charles and I have decided to sign up, and we've managed to get leave from work for it thankfully.

It's not exactly gonna be a holiday, and I really hope that God will use us somehow, to touch lives, no matter how little, and ultimately, they will see the love of Jesus through the actions of the church members. I don't know how much we can accomplish in one week, but I just pray everything will work out, and that everything will go smoothly.

We're definately not there for Mardi Gras.
