Friday night I had another enthic food "first"-Greek food. It was okay, but I think I'll always prefer chicken strips and fries. Yesterday I went to the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. This was probably my favorite Smithsonian so far, probably because it had a lot of things about animals in it and had a lot to look at. We also caught a glimpse of the Hope Diamond. I guess I didn't realize how big 45 karats was going to be. I was expecting it to be like the size of a fist, but it was only about one square inch from the top....I was kind of disappointed. I went to the museum with a group of guys and I learned a lesson-never do that again. We were through most of the museum in under and hour...a little faster than I was hoping for. Consequently, I learned very little.
Today was a fairly busy day. I went to church at Capitol Hill Baptist again-the service lasted 2 hours! Tonight I went to a praise and worship service at Ebenezers, which is a coffee house started by a pretty big church in DC. It was nice to have some kind of worship twice in one day, and it reminded me of being back at NW.
Despite many happy times, we had some sadness here. This weekend we found out one of our good friends is leaving the program for the rest of the semester and it has been pretty hard on everyone here because he was such a great guy and we will miss him. So we could all use your prayers.
