The first two days of the Philly Mission Trip were very entertaining. The car ride there was 3.5 hours and we made it in time for Ghana's last goal. After we became aquainted with the Chamounix Mansion, we went shopping. Groups of 2 and 3 went shopping for various supplies we needed to get through the fun and exciting week! Our dinner on the first night was make-your-own pizzas, and it was a mess. Then we had fun with compline lead by the fabulous James Allen, and it was truly inspirational. Day 2 we went to church at the Philadelphia Cathedral, and it was a "different" approach on church. There was a lot of movement from the baptismal font to the lectern to the altar and lots of singing! After, we went to the Reading Terminal Market to eat our lunch. Then we traveled as far as New Jersey to experience the Historic Philadelphia area (i.e., we got lost). The two days that we have been on this mission trip have been great! Tomorrow we start to help at the homeless shelter, so we did a lot of planning tonite.
