Thursday, February 23
The day started an hour later as we got to sleep in a bit more, missing the first class of the day. After breakfast and a quick devotion we climbed on the bus to head to Grace Home. We taught two classes in the morning- each bring very successful as we have now learned the names of our students and have formed relationships with them. We had an early lunch of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches (which I'm not sure I can eat any more of...) and then prepared for another afternoon of teaching. At 2pm we traveled to a nearby park with the girls from Grace Home. Games of volley ball, soccer, badminton, jump rope, and dodgeball were happening all over. We played a huge game of sheep and tiger, as well as a name game called Matthew/Mark. I don't think I've ever had so much fun at a park. It was a blessing to be able to run around with the girls on such a beautiful day. 3 hours later we headed back to Grace Home for a fantastic dinner made by Annie (which of course includes chicken nuggets). With our day being a little shorter we went back to the hotel at 6pm to have our last reflection meeting. We discussed what we thought of India and our overall impression of our experience. Towards 9 we were back in our rooms, packing, thinking about our last day here, and how we will be ALL IN.
