Screening Day

Today was a very busy day for the outreach team. We woke up early and headed to the hospital where about 70 kids were waiting to be screened. We tried our best to entertain the kids while they waited in the humid heat. We gave out coloring books, crayons, markers, jacks, play dough, stuffed animals, and mardi gras beads. The kids loved the stuff. We were amazed by the kids and their families. They said thank you for everything, and they were so nice and welcoming to us. The thing that they loved the most was pictures. We took pictures of the families and printed them out. When we gave the pictures to the families the parents were extremely excited to have a photo of them and their child. After we were all done with that we got to meet some local college kids. They knew a lot about American Culture. We talked about Michael Jordan, Bon Jovi, Tupac, and Carmelo. It was a fun and tiring day for all of us.
