Howz da cold in uk now?

I will be in manhattan mostly. It is freezing in London now but no snow is predicted this year but that could change.

You'll have to go to The Bronx, Queens or Brooklyn. Manhattan doesnt allow noisy ass churches.

What about in Harlem? I don't know if I can be bothered to go all the way to Queens, Brooklyn or The Bronx.

Do you know a particular church in Brooklyn just in case I decide to venture out?

Lol I dont live amongst that madness. I'll have to ask friends, or you could ask ikamefa, Madam Brooklyn

Harlem has tons of churches but Im not sure of Nigerian ones.

Ok thanks! I wouldn't mind going to a Black American church actually.
