Day 2- de LOVED

Day two is completely in the books now. We went through the San Jose Mission and had a great little history lesson while sitting in the chapel. It was truly amazing how these missions were built and self sustaining.

After arriving back in San Antonio, we explored the Convention Center Halls. Seeing all of the booths, exhibitions, and activities to do. We ate a quick lunch and split up from there. The youngins went to the Jamie Grace concert while Debbie, Becca, and myself looked even more closely at the booths. Becca got a few more books for the church library while walking around. Becca and I then went out of the convention hall to explore some more of the city but then came back for an adult interest session. The others continued exploring the halls, finding old friends and acquaintances. 

From there we met back up, had dinner, and then headed to the evening's Mass Event. We got seats on the floor on the left about half way back, and settled in for worship, the message, and other segments of the service.

The message tonight was how the world can distract us from God's love and leave us feeling de-loved.  These things include friends, jobs, money, popularity, and social statuses.  What is it that is keeping us from feeling Gods full love?  What is in the way from God being first in our priority list?

After this powerful message.  We worked our way even closer to the front for the Mass Event Plus for the night.  The Jesus Painter and Sand Artist along with more time worshiping.  We got 3rd row seats in the center for a good view of the upcoming presentations. The artwork ended up amazing but it was completely crazy how they could take one image and morph it into something else.

After this additional time in worship, we headed to Denny's for some milkshakes and bible study.  You will have to ask the girls about the thirsty velociraptors.

Night!
