Day 3!

Day 3: By Jordan Kaset and J'taime Weaver

We started off the day with a great big breakfast with everyone. Following cleaning up, some of us went down to the Kelly Hall YMCA to help around the facilities. A few others cleaned up several class rooms and computer rooms to help instill the cleanliness mindset further into a community where it is not the top priority. Then, we came back to the convent and helped organize donations and tidy up more around the area. Next, we helped prepare a huge lunch back at Kelly Hall with senior citizens of the community and got to enjoy their company. Some of us were able to really connect with them and hear their input.  The seniors had so much positive advice and welcomed us all with lovely smiles.

After spending time with the seniors, we went and worked with our after school children. When we got inside we helped them with their homework before we played board games! The room was full of puzzles and different activities going on while the kids were roaring with laughter. The kids enjoy us and we are developing mentor relationships with them!
