Outreach Week



The first week of October our school canceled all classes for the week and sent teams out to local churches. There we served the entire week. We were pretty much their slaves. We did whatever needed to be done. I was on a team of about 18 people and we went to a local church where some of my friends actually attend. It's called Church of the Canyons. That week we had so much serving. We made props for a harvest festival, we painted, we did tons TONS of yards work, just cleaning up all outside. One day we went door to door through neighbor hoods handing out pamphlets for their harvest festival. We handed out 1,000. It was crazy that day. They had an all church work party on that Saturday that they participated in and then after that we handed out the paper. It was super hot that day so we were all dying. And fortunately my group of course got the neighbor that was just hill after hill after hill, you were never level either going down, but mostly going up. ha ha It was fun though. It was a blessing to serve the local church.
