Day7
Washington DC
September 9, 2015 in the United States
We got up early this morning to catch the bus to DC. The subway stations were soo packed as it was rush hour and everybody was commuting to work, this was no fun with our luggage! We got the underground to the nearest station but had to walk to the bus stop... Nats case is one where it pulls on the top corner so walking any distance with this is a nightmare! The bus was around an hour late so we had breakfast whilst queuing.

When we arrived at DC it appeared far less busy and chaotic than New York, arriving at the hostel staff were very warm and welcoming and explained a bit about what there is to do.

We went out for a walk to orientate ourselves, DC is a absolutely lovely place; the people are friendly, it's clean and not mega busy.

When we returned to the hostel some of the people there invited us to play drinking games and there is a happy hour every night where everyone gets two free drinks. At 10pm there is a no more drinks rule in the hostel so one of the staff members said that we could all (about 8 of us) go to his friends apartment. His friends apartment was lovely with fantastic roof top balcony! All in all a great night!Read more

Calvary Protestant Episcopal Church
April 23, 2016 in the United States
We helped prepare and serve breakfast to the homeless people at this church. First of all Josiah, Makenna, and Kaitlyn helped prepare and butter biscuits, meanwhile Jeremy sat at a table and welcomed the guests, he also made sure they each signed in. Our City Host Kristyn began to talk to some of the homeless people, slowly Jess and Kailah joined her, soon Liz and Madison went over to another table. Greg and Josh then went over an introduced ourselves to a man. We soon then helped pass out plasticware to the tables. The food we served included gritts, sausage, eggs, applesauce, chicken, and biscuits. For drinks they had orange juice and coffee. We served 45 homeless individuals. After being prayed for by the church we began to walk outside as it was begining to rain.Read more

Day2
Douglas Memorial Methodist Church
April 23, 2016 in the United States
After braving the rain we return to the church. Thr other group had not returned yet, so we just hung out in the fellowship hall. Once the other group returned the City Hosts decided to switch our activities around due to the rain. They told us the church need two things to be done. 1) The clothing in the church's thrift store needed to be sorted and organized. We brought all the clothing up from the storage area in the basement, up to the fellowship hall. We then sorted and returned down stairs. 2) They need a few people to do some heavy lifting to move some furniture from one room to another. Following that we all relaxed a little in the fellowship hall.Read more

Urban Plunge
April 23, 2016 in the United States
Our next activity was Urban Plunge. The goal of this activity was to get an experience of what homelessness was like in DC. From the church we had to find our way to Eastern Markets, once there we find out as much as we could about homelessness from random strangers. We also had to feed everyone in our group plus one additional person lunch for no more than $2 a person.
The groups were:
Group 1: Leaders: Grant, Emily, and Kaliah. Students: Josiah, Makenna, Katelyn, and Madison.
Group 2: Leaders: Calvin, and Greg. Students: Stephanie,Orlando, Antoine, and Daryl.
Group 3: Leaders: Jess, and Liz. Students: Joshua, Jeremy, JB, and Erica

Jess pulled out her phone to make sure we were going the right direction, instead of turning right out of the church she told us to turn left, a minute later she realized we actually wanted to go the other way.Read more
