Lions, and Tigers and Bears! Oh My!






Sorry we didn't post the blog yesterday, but we were too busy having FUN! We went to the "World Famous" St. Louis Zoo! Many of the animals were seeking any relief from the heat they could find, but we still had an amazing time. After the zoo, we headed to the mall to get some lunch and relief from the heat. Then, we went downtown to the ARCH! Many of us had to conquer our fears of height and claustrophobia in order to squeeze into the egg-shaped cars that would transport us 650 feet into the air above St. Louis. We managed to fit all 42 of us into the 8 cars at the same time so that we be at the top together. The view was beautiful and will be a life-long memory. After we got back down to Earth, we created a special message using our bodies on the ground. Thankfully, our cell phones allowed us to receive direction from above-with Rawlings telling everyone which way to turn so our letters would be straight. Our photo message will be a forever reminder that we should always Live Out Loud! We ate some delicious pizza at Imo's Pizza and came back to the church for devotions. More later about our third work day at Kingdom House...
