Week 5: St. Anthony's and St. Theresa's - Thursday

Today was an amazing day. We really just celebrated all the accomplishments we have all done this week for all the migrant families. We went to mass in the morning to start off our day so God and Jesus could give us all the strength we needed that day. We then went to the pool to just have fun and spend quality time with each other. After that we went to the migrant camps to go play with all the children's and have a really nice barbecue. Seeing all the smiling faces of the kids is an image i will never forget because even though they don't have the best life they still try to be happy. Overall today was a good day and we learned a lot this week that we will never forget.
Hi my name is Maili and today was a fun celebration day! When we first woke up, the parents/drivers and the Agape staff surprised us with a delicious breakfast. It was good. After that we went to mass at the other Catholic church in Bellingham. It kept us all awake because it was only 30 minutes!! Then we went to the community pool and swam for about 2 hours. We returned to the church and ate lunch then went to the sunrise and had a barbecue with our friends there. In the end, it was hard saying bye to our friends there because we've already spent so much time with them and grew a lot of amazing friendships. This week was something I would never forget because I met so many people and it was really fun bonding with them.
