It’s been a great week! Spending the week working and
talking to Mildred and Bob was a great experience. Our supplies finally came on
the second day, so we had to work really hard to get the ramp done. As we were finishing the ramp, everyone on my
site signed the last piece of wood before we screwed it in place. I thought that was really special. Also throughout the week, I have been able
to learn how to use power tools. At
first I was really scared, but now I feel more comfortable with them so I am
grateful for that experience. After we finished the ramp, we decided to
rebuild part of their deck as well. When
we were completely done with both the deck and the ramp, Bob started
crying. Finishing our job and seeing Bob
cry made me feel special because I knew that we did something that will change
their lives completely. Lastly, I got
the chance to bond with the other kids that came on the mission trip and am
happy I got the chance to know them.
Everyone in Bethesda is really nice and welcomed us with open arms.
