A Day In The Park

This past Saturday we as a class went and served in the inner city of Nashville, TN. We served with a group called Isaiah 58, and they do this every Saturday. They bring a bus and a bunch of people to this park and feed and just hang out with these inner city kids. So needless to say I kind of got stuck with a not so fun job and handed out food all day. It was tight quarters, with some random guy I didn't know that kind of smelt, and yeah. Meanwhile the rest of my classmates were out in the beautiful weather playing football, basketball, chasing kids, and just loving them. Everyone had such a great time. It was a great experience and I wish that we would have something like that in our home town, not like we have a inner city really, b
ut like maybe having an organization that goes down to the Homeless Shelter and just helps out and hangs out with the people. There were about seventy-five people that showed up for the free lunch, and a majority of them were kids. So here are a couple of pics to show you how cute all the kids were.It was pretty crazy because on the way there we got lost, and then we witnessed a car crash, so then we had to pull over to the shoulder and wait for the police to come since we witnessed it. But yeah we didn't stick around because there were plenty of people that had seen it, so we walked back to check if everything was okay. And everyone that was invovled was fine.
