Going to Alaska was a great experience.

Going to Alaska was a great experience. When we arrived everyone was exhausted from the plane ride so we went to our home for the week. The next morning when we woke up we received our stations and went there. I was assigned to the Boys and Girls Club and met amazing people and fun kids. Other groups went to the bus stops, letter room, and food pantry. The other groups helped around the places and preached about the bible. We played in the snow a lot when ever we could. After our stations everyday we usually went to parks and played with kids. We met lots of neat kids and some I will never forget. We went sledding one day and some people got hurt. The hike was very fun. We went to Blue Berry Hill and hiked to the very top and got lots of good pictures! On the last day we had a carnival at the Boys and Girls Club and then said goodbye to all the kids and the went souvenir shopping. We got lots of cool stuff. After that we went back to the church packed up and headed home. What I learned is that to have patience, because God works in mysterious ways also I learned to walk slow on ice.
