On Sunday we rose early to make the 8:30 service at the St. Andrews church that we were staying at. Attending a different church was a new experience for all of us and opened our eyes to see what other church services are like. After church we were able to explain to the congregation what the National Leadership Council was and what we were doing in Iowa. Overall the group presented very well and the audience had many questions sparked by interest. They wanted to know things such as how we joined the NLC program and how often we see each other in a year.
The next part of our day was driving for over two hours to the Furbush's home on Lake Panorama. On the long drive we passed endless fields of corn and beautiful blue skies. When we arrived, seeing the Furbush's glowing faces assured us that the rest of the day would be amazing. We all had the opportunity to go tubing, water skiing, kayaking and canoeing. Mr. Furbush drove the boat and took most of us for a wild adventure of tubing and a smooth ride of skiing. Other activities included ping pong, air hockey, pool, foosball, and laying out on a hammock. These activies gave us time to relax and hangout as a group. Mrs. Furbush was kind enough to cook all of us dinner and dessert, and boy she makes good food. We approve! At their home we were able to have Sunday School and split up into two groups by gender. The groups both had very good discussions and enjoyed Sunday School very much. After the beautiful sunny day we headed back to the church for the night.
