The Until We Meet Again Tour – 7 August 2016, part 3

The Until We Meet Again Tour took a walk through Central Park and then rode the tram to Roosevelt Island. There it visited the Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms Park (the photos from the park did not turn out well, but others did).

There were great views of the United Nations complex. In the background, one can see the Church Center for the United Nations.

There were amazing views of Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens from Roosevelt Island. I confess to only taking photos of Manhattan.

Heading across E. 59th Street to the Roosevelt Island Tram, I came across this door frame. Not sure what store was once there or why it is out of business.
It has a good color.

The Until We Meet Again Tour – 31 July 2016

The Until We Meet Again Tour hopped the Long Island Railroad and ventured out to Queens to preach at the First Presbyterian Church of Whitestone.

Whitestone had been one of the first, if not the first, church where I made a presentation in my role as the director of the Presbyterian Ministry at the United Nations.

Andy James, Whitestone’s pastor, was the first to invite me to preach this summer. Pondering that invitation, and accepting that invitation, allowed me to accept other invitations. And that has made for a wondrous tour.
