Community Service

During my time on mission trips, we would travel the east coast helping people in need of help. As a small group, we would work for a week on a specific need of the person we were servicing. For example, on one trip we installed a new floor for a woman who had a home that was not stable anymore. From the trips I have taken, I have learned many handson skills and also how to work as a team to accomplish a goal on a timeline.
