Last weekend was crazy. It started out with Maria and her mom coming to visit on Saturday. That was awsome. We went to Millennium Park, the Celtic Music Festival, Navy Pier (boring), the conservatory, and walked around a lot. Sunday a group of us went to the Harvest church, which was right down the street. I didn't realize when we went there that I would be in for such a new experience. The music was very loud, and people were jumping around and falling down. Then when it looked like the paster was about to give his sermon he suddenly got all this energy and started "anointing" people, at least thats what I think it is. He put his hand on their foreheads and they fell down. I had seen things like that on TV before, but I had never seen it in person.
So that was my weekend. This week started with a lot of discussions. We talked about Sundays worship with everyone who would listen. We also had a discussion with Darrell about spirituality types. We took a "test" to see which type we were. There were 12 questions and 4 types. I had a four way tie! Later we had a discussion on prayer with Krista, we learned different ways to pray. That was a good discussion. Wednesday- Friday I went to my service project doing the same basic thing as last week. This weekend I was hoping to see the Cubs game, but because they are actually good this year I won't be able to get tickets. I'm going to the art institute, and I'm sure I'll find other stuff to do this weekend. I'll let you know about it next week

Joanthan> i don' t think we took you to any Charistmatic services. I'm glad you are experiencing different kinds of worship and doing Church. God bless you as you learn about prayer and about youself and your spiritual style. Hope to see you next weekend
