Our table was loaded down with the essentials: Bible, journal, travel journal, and cheesy, vegetably, peppery, lightly-salted omelettes. Can't get much better than that!
After the bagel stop, we hung out at the beach. It was fun walking around and shooting the breeze with our words. When the breeze had taken all it could, it was time for us to part ways. Erica waited for the Q53 and a lost feeling swept over me. It was like the feeling I had when we were lost on Rockaway and 98th Street.
I walked unassuredly to the train stop. An A-train came and I stepped on praying it was the right one. I needed to get to Jay Street and was relieved to know I was headed the right way. I met up with Sir Charles of New York, who showed me around town and then took me to Christ Tabernacle for church. Coney Island was quite alive with tourists. Very different from Far Rockaway. Advice from me to you: go to Far Rockaway for a nice beach trip. It's just as beautiful and relaxing (plus, there are way less tourists!).
Christ Tabernacle was a small church that housed many passionate members. The night I came they were playing a sermon that Tim Keller had done about the Prodigal Son and his Elder Brother. I loved it! I would like to find a church similar to this one in Texas.
I was very grateful to Charles for showing me around the city. I got to meet some cool people and walk around town. Today has been a true blessing.
I can tell you're becoming more travel savvy, thanks for the updates!
