Mission Trip

This spring break was different than I was planning it to be. I was planning to just do nothing and lay around all day, but actually I spent the whole week in the third ward in Houston. I went with my friends and other volunteers from his church. It wasn’t all fun and games, though I’m not saying we didn’t have a fun time. We painted a lady’s house, fixed her roof, did a bunch of yard work for the community, and learned about the gospel.  We stayed in a church gym for half of the week, the other part of the week we spent the night in a nice married couples house. The mission trip influenced me and made me take more things for granted. Once you are used to having food on the table three times a day , and a nice house in a nice neighborhood, it really shocks you to see how its like in the ghetto.
