Urban plunge day 2

Good evening everyone! I hope you are doing well, here is the run down of our day today and also some questions to ask your students when they get home. Both teams spent time in new hope villa, and painting a house for rebuild Dayton. New hope villa is a residential unit for people who have been homeless at one point in their lives, and who deal with mental disorders. Team 1 spent their time playing games, the Xbox kinect, and skipbo. They had great conversations and came away with lots of eat stories, team 2 played chair volleyball. It was amazing, they have an actual chair volleyball team that competes in tournaments, and they have 1st place trophies. Our team won 3 out of the 4 games, but it was pretty close. Today was our poverty day, we broke the students up into 3 families of 6 and they got 10$ to eat all day. Our students did great! Almost every family had food left over, they did a great job. The debriefing time was fantastic with the students tonight. It would be a great thing for you to talk with your student about when they get home. Here are some questions for you to ask your students. 1. How was poverty day? 2. What was your favorite part of painting? 3. Tell me about the people at new hope villa? 4. What was your favorite game we played in the park? 5. Wha did you learn about God in Sams testimony? Hope you guys have a great day! See you Thursday, please keep praying for our team. P.A.
