Wow….what an exciting day we had!  Team 1, VBS  (18 of us), worked hard at the City of Refuge & ate lunch with the children.  Twelve  in this team went to Eden Village were they helped prepare dinner.  The rest of Team 1 worked with Atlanta Street Meals where they also helped prepare & serve dinner.

Those who were 16 or over, Team 2A, worked on a Habitat house for Shirley Hart where we  & a small crew from Home Depot completely paint the exterior of a house in just under 5 hours…amazing!  It was extremely hot, but very rewarding.  Ms. Hart had a huge pear tree in her backyard full of pears ready for picking.  She allowed us to fill a huge bucket & grocery bag with fresh pears for the Mercy Center.  They very rarely get fresh fruit & we felt they would love this. We all went out later for dinner.

Team 2B worked with Kashi Street Meals where they prepared lunch & went to the streets serving the homeless.  What an experience!

We had one group go to Eden Village (City of Refuge) to prepare dinner & serve.  The rest of our group helped prepare dinner for Atlanta Street Meals.  We had a time for sharing & devotions.  The students are SO grown up!  The week is flying by!
