We had several different outreaches and service projects today. We had a group of 25 of students and leaders stay at the Dream Center for a summer day camp. Some students visited with ages 5-11 yrs (field trip to a local park). The other students stayed on the property and visited with other young people ages 12 and up. They ate together, painted rooms, etc.
The other 60 students and workers took it to Donaldsonville (D'Ville they call it). The Donaldsonville Dream Center has come a long way! There is a lot of history in Donaldsonville that goes back to the 1800's. When the Dream Center Pastor was shown the building years ago that they had the opportunity to buy they were literally wading through trash and rats in the old warehouse. The investers believed in the pastor's vision and they got it! We did a food drive this morning and worked on a damaged school (from Ike).
Our students have been working very hard (and fast)! You would be proud!
Tonight we are going to a nice area in Baton Rouge for some fun time! We will come back to have a short "de-brief" service and breakout groups.
