After the berry picking, we ate our lunch on the road to the YMCA. We showered off, and next thing we know we are at the grocery store picking out our meal with a limited amount of money. Flash forward and we stop at one of the workers camps. All of the kids including myself, Grace, played dodge ball. Even a few parents played. Over all this was my favorite day, and I know that others feel the same.
The Agape Service Project fosters environments where participants can serve the migrant community of Whatcom County and grow in their Catholic faith. We will post here daily throughout the program! Check back on Wednesdays to learn how many people we served at the Food Bank!

Week 5: Our Lady of Fatima- Tuesday
As the morning rolled on, parents awoke and turned the lights on so all would also do so. 5:00 was hard for everyone but luckily, we woke up enough to go upstairs to a breakfast of cereal. Before we knew it we were in cars on our way to two different farms. Today it was Migrant Immersion day! Myself and some friends headed off to the blueberry farm. We learned so many things like all the different kinds of blueberries. Hours pass, and as the picking and weeding ends, the staff and kids got to know each other better.
