2 Church by Keith (a pilgrim)
Our second day of pilgrimage was both fun and tiring. We went to two church services, witnessed hundreds of sparring sealions, ate enough In and Out burgers to make us sick and bought sweet sunglasses. Zach is currently trying to fix his because he sat on them.
The morning service was a very new experience for us pilgrims. To summarize we used phrases like excessive clapping, loud voices and insane dance moves, and packed building. Other than that, the service was ver similiar to United Parish. Similiar message and same sense of faith.
Our second service was on the complete opposite side of the church service spectrum. There was about 20 people in the congregation at a service that lasted 35 minutes. It was a quick sermon, a few short hyms and a cozy communion.
The afternoon free time allowed some touristing. My group went to the pier and checked out shops and sea lions. We ate burgers. We expereinced many different ways of living. Whether flailing your arms at a 2 hour church service or watching street magic outside of an In and Out Burger we are all on faith journey.
