Culture Bridge
a note from Truman's Trout
Today Erik and Timmy (aka Jacob/Santa Clause/Justin Timberlake) each dug up their own weed, and then argued about whose was bigger. (They were each 2 and a half feet long.) Yesterday Erik and Jacob got in a fight about who got to use the wrench. Me (Meredith G.) and a girl from another church that was in our group were right outside the door and heard the whole thing, it was incredibly funny! -- Meredith G.
This morning we helped clean up the lot next to the church. When we were done weeding, we put the weeds into 50-gallon paper bags. There was one extra bag so I put it on. It looked very awesomlicious. I almost ran into a car but that’s ok cuz ima koolkat. -- Jessica M.

Scenes of Service
a note from Andrew P.
Today at the Boys Club Gunnar, Micheal, Andrew S, Ben, Bennett, Conner, Joey, Adam, Mitch, Logan, Jeremy, and I built shelves for all the boys at the club to put their backpacks and books on. We all also have buddies. The buddies are kids 10 and younger.
My buddy was Zach. Zach is a 7 year old who loves to play hockey and his favorite game to play with me was foose ball. This week has been a very eye-opening and life-changing expirence. I have seen kids who get 1 or 2 meals a day and the Boys Club is the only place they can go during the summer where they are safe. I now see how thankful I am for having everything I do and all the things my parents do to feed me 3 meals every day.
