MACRC Paddling the Passaic

 Thursday night we went out on our Third Congregational Paddling Night. With help from Eric White and Rick "Riverman" Rodriguez we had a total of 20 paddlers. Rick used two of his SeaEagle inflatable kayaks and we had our 11 kayaks and 2 canoes. We had some brand new paddlers as well as some well seasoned one. We began encouraging everyone to take the time to read God's "Big Book" of creation as we paddled.

Paddling in sync can be quite a challenge


We enjoyed watching the sun go down.
We paddled to just below Rick's Island and gathered together as Pastor John recited Psalm 8. It is a wonderful celebration of God' creation and the special place he has given us as human beings in taking care of it.
Go Taj go!

 After a visit to Ricks Island we paddled back to the Elmwood Park Marina and loaded up as it was getting dark. A good time was had by all and we thanked God for safety and the ways He revealed himself to us.
