Monday (Day 2): We started off our day by eating breakfast and having a simulation of the process to get into the USA, as well as an example of what the wages are like in Mexico.
At this time, the VBS kids were getting ready for the day by preparing lunch. They left at 10:00am for Sunrise Camp, where the migrant kids awaited their arrival.
While this was going on, the Agape Track 1 kids were watching a section of a video about migrants and immigration. After the section was over, they talked about the process of getting to the USA and how hard it was to do it successfully.
After this, the Track 1 kids traveled to Sunrise Camp, where they rendezvoused with the VBS kids. They went on to play games and do a craft with the children at Sunrise.
This ended at 3:00 PM when we cleaned up and left Sunrise to go Tabling.We got into groups and all headed to different local grocery stores. Tabling was very successful, and we came, unloaded and then had dinner.
After dinner we had a group discussion on today's encounters. We talked about what was impactful, and what was challenging. We also discussed loving people at all times.We wrapped up the day with a prayer led by one of the Agape Track 1 kids.
