A Great Thursday!


Today we tried a recommended cafe for breakfast which turned out to be very good. It is called The Hudson.  It also had a really cool art wall with graffiti style.  After we finished eating we walked straight to the COBO center and checked out the newly set up community activities rooms. 
It had a giant swing and zip line and lots of other fun activities.  


After spending a while looking at some of the stations, we ate lunch and then attended our Synod Day of learning and worship.  Both Bishops from Pacifica Synod and the Southern California Synod participated.  

After dinner we headed over to Ford Field.  They had a lot of great music and really good speakers.  We left the convention center early so we wouldn't get trampled by the crowd.  Overall it was another fun day.  

My favorite part of the gathering so far is how no matter where you're from people talk to you as is if they know you.  If you spend a little time with them by the end you feel like you've known them for a long time.  It’s amazing to come together with that many people and bond over a common belief.
