Day 6

We got up rather early to get ready for the Sunday morning service, in which Dad would be preaching briefly. Once again we went to the mega church called Bethel. We arrived early, but the service started soon.

The Teen Challenge Choir was there again also. When they quit singing, many former Teen Challenge students shared their testimony, including Dad. It was a nice service and afterwards the Rowes took us out to lunch.

We ate at a strange chicken frying place. It was very crowded and in all the chaos, I ended up getting way more than I had first ordered! As a result, I ended up really full by the time we drove back to the hotel.

Since the pool was open and no one was there any more, Josh, Emily and I all swam the afternoon away.

When dinner time came around we went to the Rowes' house. I was still kind of full from lunch, but I had enjoyed it anyway. We talked a lot during the whole visit, being that this was the last time we would be seeing them. I had a great evening, but we talked very late into the night and I soon got very tired. I was both sad and relieved to get back to the hotel that night.
