Today started off with us going to Agape's hip hop worship in the morning, which I enjoyed. We then went to another service immediately after - a very traditional one. I found it boring and dry, and when compared to all the other options that we had before us, it felt like a waste of time. Because we weren't allowed to go back to the hotel, we walked the streets of New Orleans, hot and sweaty, until some of us decided to go to the aquarium, which was fun.
We then went to our learning sessions, where we went to a workshop about the AIDS crisis in Africa. One of the activities they had us do was write a letter to the people of Africa about the epidemic. I was apalled at the poor quality of most of the letters - an abundance of misspelled words, poorly constructed sentences, and incredibly insensitive statements... It seemed that many of the people writing them were either ignorant or just plain stupid.
Evening worship wasn't really anything too special I thought, except for an amazing violinist named Amanda Shaw.
