Rachel N - Wednesday


Today my group went to the Beloved house to have a farmers market for elders with low income. We helped them fill bags with fresh produce to take home. After the farmers market we participated in a worship service, which I really loved. The woman’s words really spoke to me and I also loved the songs. After the worship service ended, we cleaned up and hopped on the city bus for a ride to a children’s playground. We spent the rest of the afternoon playing with the kids. We made seed bombs, which are a combination of dirt, clay, and sunflower seeds. Once you let the balls harden, you can throw it on the ground and let the plant grow. We played a game of kick ball with the kids and also many games of tag. The kids were very cute, but also very crazy! It was hard to keep up with them but it was still really sad. With this being my first mission trip, I really loved working and helping out people in need. I am sad this is our last work day but I am excited for white water rafting tomorrow!:)
