Music Slideshow for March 25-27, 2017

Experiencing the Culture

Sunday began with two hour service at Franklin Avenue Baptist Church.  What a vibrant God experience here!  They made us feel right at home.  Then we had some tour time and prayer time in the Lower 9th Ward, the site of such devastation and now rebirth.  The evening's ministry was serving dinner at Ozanam Inn, doing our best to serve over 200 men who were homeless.  A very full day!
