I went to Minneapolis this weekend with 2 pastors and a youth group from Charles City to take a tour of the refugee area there. It was quite the experience. I learned just as much about the ignorance of Christian leaders as I did about ministry but that's okay. We had African food for lunch and bought pretty cloth and I only cried twice. I hadn't heard the call to prayer since Africa (except that one time at Parkview...when I also cried) and it kind of took me by surprise. Malcolm, our host, was really great and excited to have us there and I can't wait to go back and spend more time with him, and less time picking out bracelets with 5th graders.
