Thursday

Today we served at the Exceptional Foundation which is a center for mentally handicapped people. We spent the whole day in their summer camp program. We played games, did crafts, watched a movie. It was awesome!

This evening we worked at the Presbyterian church and fed 150 people a hot meal. We noticed some familiar faces from other feeding programs.

Memphis Bible Studies

Most mornings and every evening we gathered for bible study, debrief, and discussion. Most of the time those studies and discussions were lively and could have gone on for ever! In the morning Bible studies we definitely had some encounters with the sleepy kind! :)

Wednesday Evening

Tonight we did a clothing swap for one of the projects in down town Memphis. We loaded a school bus to over flowing with clothes rejected from thrift stores and took them to a park in the middle of the complex. We laid them out on tarps and people were invited to take what they want. It was frenzy and chaotic but fun and crazy too.
Our youth worked hard and got sweaty and then had fun hunting for treasures and playing dress up.

Wednesday Afternoon

We went to the Slave Haven today. This was a house on the underground railroad that help house and feed runaway slaves.
We got to tour the house, the secrete room and learn a lot about the underground railroad.

Tuesday Morning

Today we got up early and went to St Mary's Catholic church to help in the soup kitchen. This church has been feeding the poor and hungry for 140 years!!! It is a beautiful Catholic church which was built by Franciscan monks in the 1850's. They serve 250-350 plates a day!
