Lookout
22 April 2016, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
Our final stop on the prayer tour was at a catholic church. Here you can get an amazing view of the whole entire city. Upon driving into the parking lot we noticed a cop car, as we approached the field to look at the city the cop flicked his lights on. We had no idea what was going to happen, but thankfully he just circled around us and then parked up closer to the church but still was probably watching us. We were then instructed to have silent prayers in our vans. After prayer, we were able leave the vans and take pictures of the view.Baca lagi

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.

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.Baca lagi

Urban Plunge
23 April 2016, Amerika Syarikat ⋅ 🌧 15 °C
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.Baca lagi

As we walked down the market we notice two people sitting on a bench, they both looked like locals because they were not dressed very nicely. We stopped an talked to decide if we should approach them, we could not make a decision so we prayed about it. After the prayer JB and Erica approached the lady meanwhile Jess, Jeremy, Liz, and I looked at one of the shops. JB and Erica did not have much success with the lady see claimed she was not from DC but then later told them she was, so we decided to try someone else.Baca lagi

Eastern Market Station Square

We did not see many people as we walked through the market we did not see any one that looked approachable so we ended up at this little park area. Their was many kids selling lemonade for $2, this seemed appealing, but we knew we could not afford it with our $12 budget. As we walked around this area we saw many more stands selling lemonade (The profit when towards the Human Society). At one point we stopped and were talking, Erica turned around and standing right in front of here was a kid dressed in a gorilla costume.Baca lagi
