Soup Kitchen Round 2
This week me and a few sociology scholars scurried to the St. Thomas Church of Canterberry to volunteer at their soup kitchen held every tuesday and friday. I had visited the church with Sal a few weeks before and the experience was just as rewarding and accomplishing. I mingled with many of the guests discussing present topics of all sorts. Many of them were so eager to open up and share their life experiences with us high schoolers. To physically contribute to their house of healing and aid was such a rewarding experience and I'm so proud to have committed my community service time for this cause. Thank you again Sal for the recommendation and the exciting opportunity!

Wow thats cool that community service made a difference in your life. I guess just like we learned in sociology this week, teens want to have a role in society and community service gives them that sense of role in society, I cant wait to do community service this weekend.
ReplyDeleteI know I remember when I went with before and just going there and listening to what some of the people had to say was very interesting and it was so nice to know that they were also very curious to know about us too.
ReplyDeleteThat is really cool that you had fun with this. Many kids go in with a bad attitude and then don't get anything out of it
ReplyDeleteKiley nice vocab words. I think this was good that you took something positive out of this. More people should participate in activities like this around the world. It would probably make the world a better place
