"I love you, Lord
For You have heard my pleas for mercy,
You've been nothing but good to me.
Not to us, not to us,
But to Your name be all the glory,
I was helpless and You saved me,"
This isn't about me. It isn't about Jeremy. It isn't even about church planting. Its about Jesus! And all the glory belongs to Him! We had a wonderful two days in Albany, as we spent time touring the city with Sean Pierce. We were able to picture life there for the first time. And let me tell you, Albany is absolutely gorgeous, especially in November. I can't wait to call it home.
^^^This is the capital building of New York. It is gorgeous, and so unique!^^^
We were so exhausted that night, but had such a wonderful day seeing the city and surrounding towns. It was so neat being able to walk the unfamiliar streets dreaming about the day when we have them memorized. Confirmation would be theme of this trip. So thankful that God gives us affirming experiences in our lives to allow us to know to keep trusting Him and following Him as best we can.
The next morning we woke up early and headed to the train station! We took the 2.5 hour train ride into New York City to spend the weekend! The train ride was amazing!! It rides along the Hudson River the entire time, and the view is beautiful. Coming into NYC was so much fun! We checked into our hotel, and immediately went to our favorite lunch spot: Dos Caminos. I can't even tell you how good their guacamole and quesadillas are. We had been dreaming about them since the last time we were there, and they did not disappoint! Then we spent the rest of the afternoon walking around, shopping, and just taking in the city. We had dinner in Times Square that night and then turned in early to get a good night's sleep!

^^^The NHL store was J's favorite part^^^
^^^It was so fun being there so close to Christmas, and seeing all of the decorations start going up! There were so many workers during the day all over the city getting it all ready for Christmas!^^^
Part 2 coming soon!
