Vegas, Day 2

The second day of our Vegas retreat was just as good as the first. Saturday we traveled to Canyon Ridge Christian Church and Central Christian Church to meet with their Arts Staff and attend their services (we actually attended Central's service Sunday morning). It was really great to see what other people are doing, to hear their philosophy of ministry, and to talk with them about Arts in the church. The whole experience was very productive.

Once we arrived back at the hotel, Steve, Kirsten, Christina and myself went up the top of the Stratosphere. It is 109 stories tall (I believe the tallest building in Vegas...). There are rides up there, but I'm a big chicken and had no desire to go on them. One ride, called the Big Shot, shoots you straight up in the air. Not my idea of fun. Another ride called Insanity dangles you over the edge of the building and twirls you around. Again, doesn't look like fun. The last ride is a roller coaster that takes you off the edge of the building and drops you. Yeah, like I'm gonna do that. But it was a lot of fun to go up there. The view was amazing! Here are some pictures.
