Day of The Lord

I went to CCNE for church and it made me think about home. I was so excited to find that there was one near me and the first thing I did when I had the chance was to look up where it was and then I went! The worship style is very similar to back home.

They did one set of songs for regular worship and then a second set that transitioned us to our taking of communion. They have a guy playing the acoustic guitar, two singers, and a drummer on stage. They sang worship songs that we sing back home, of which some had became my favorite during different parts if my life: 1Heart of Worship 2How Deep the Father's Love 3Jesus Messiah 4From the Inside Out (my all time favorites^^). 
The people there were very friendly and welcoming during greeting time (10 minutes) after the first set of songs. The southern hospitality is real.

During communion, they played instrumental worship music and the trays were passed down each row and we were to eat/drink as we felt led. The "bread" consisted of the communion breas shown below, served with a little plastic cup of grape juice.

On our way to Five Guys for lunch, we drove by a "Nestle Toll House" building and I thought it was really cool so I took a picture of it for you guys. We didn't go in so I have no idea what I would see there.

I felt like sharing my self-painted blue tipped nails. I have a new respect for people at nail salons though they have tools and such to make it easier than it was for me, but it was still relaxing nonetheless.

I was chatting with my friend Abe and he told me that the soccer game was on and I decided to watch with him. I had never before stayed on a sports channel and watch the entire game, so I wanted to give it a try.

The game was between Barcelona and Valencia. I stayed to watch for 70/90 minutes in the game. Barcelona won 3-2.

Below is the group of soccer players that were watching the game + Sofia & Julia.

We have brother-sister halls, which mean there's a group of guys we have a hall of the opposite gender to hangout with together in self-organized events (games, meals etc.) My FLT took pictures of each of the girls on our hall "mugging", made copies and stuck them all in our brother-FLT's room (they're good friends-and we had requested each other's halls to buddy up with). If you look closely, I'm framed.
I found a good verse that was posted on the wall of one of the hallways.

I went to a college worship night/service at Midtown Church. We sang some songs I didn't know the words to but it was really easy to catch on. I think we sang May the Words of my Mouth by Tim Hughes.

We played music from Daniel's iPod & danced in our seats/sang to the songs. It was great. It makes me think of the FF Dance Party.

Today was a blessed day of The Lord.
