…well, almost.
The New York City Caravan will soon be leaving Portland, en route to New York City, to establish a new church in Manhattan. (Though I suspect most of them will then promptly leave Manhattan to live in Jersey).
Senior Pastor Ed Schefter explains:
The team is set to leave on July 28th and 29th, and furious packing is under way. The Schefter home and Eternity offices are set up temporarily, and all getting loaded that weekend, along with the belongings of Joy Seif, JR Nunez, Mike and Julie Grubbs, Marian Morton, Delilah Tate, and Camesha Christie.
Yeah, you read that correctly. My cousin Marion is one of the founding members of the church. This, of course, makes me feel a little guilty for mocking the whole ridiculous enterprise. But, eh, well, that's kind of how my family roles.
Anywhoo, here's the NYC travel itinerary:
We will be taking the central route right through the middle of the country, and driving through ID, UT, WY, NE, IO, IL, OH, PA, and NJ, to finally arrive in NYC by Sunday, August 5th. Anyone know of anything fun to do in Wyoming? What about Nebraska?
Uh, no. I did this trip four years ago driving from Portland to DC, and it took me exactly two and a half days, because, there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do in between. If anything, it gave me a new found distaste for middle America. 
There are fun things to do in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Ah, yes…Wyoming…where the men are men, and the sheep are scared.

I still can not believe Shifty Schefter is a pastor!!!
Unbelievable!!!
Wyoming and Nebraska have great spots for shooting prairie dogs/ground squirrels! Very theraputic, looking throught the cross hairs….imagine what ever you want!
Well, I wouldn’t know about that … there’s growing corn, and, and, and … oh crap, you’re right.
At any rate, at this moment, I’m in Sequim, WA visiting my pop and drinking all the free beer and good restaurant food I can hold.
We drove out in 3 days … only sight we saw was the Devil’s Tower … totally cool.

What about packing up all the belongings of Elders Louman and Jones? As staff members I thought that they would be going along also. Opps! Thats not how it works is it? Elders 3 time zones away? Brilliant!

Haha, kind of screws up the “simulcast” a bit! As Clint Eastwood said, “A mans’ got to know his limitations.” (it was in one of the ‘dirty harry’ flicks)
Do they turn into pillars of salt if they look back?
