Hello everyone! It is 3:21 in the afternoon and we finished our service project just a few hours ago. We went to an elementary school on the west bank of New Orleans to hang out with third graders. We read to them, helped them finish an assignment and just had a good time with them. It is interesting to note that their original school was devastated by Katrina and they now meet in a series of double wide trailers. The group is still having a good time and right now they are getting a few hours rest before we head to the Superdome for more speakers. Tonight we will hear from a former child soldier and a band called the Katinas.

Tomorrow we spend a day at the convention center attending workshops on faith, God, the Bible and the culture of New Orleans.

It is hard to believe that we only have two more nights in New Orleans and that we will be back on Monday!

Blessings, Aaron
