Toronto 2010…Day 6…Operation Hydration…Regent Park…Wrap Up
June 25th, 2010 by admin

The day began with one team going to Good Shepherd again, making beds and hanging out with the people that came for lunch. It was a great ending to a good time there. The other team did the ethnic plunge to China Town, bringing back some Jasmine tea and sampling some Chinese goodies in town.



After lunch both teams went back to Moss Park for Operation Hydration, to pass out bottles of water and talk to people in one of the most desnse mission house areas. Did you know there are about 6,000 beds in Toronto available for the homeless every night?



Then the group went back to Regent Park to help with a carnival to wrap up the school year put on by the Kiwanis boys and girls club. It was a great time and our group pitched in well. Dinner was at Sushi on Bloor…yes Sushi. Most students tried it. Then we went by the lake and did a wrap up, putting what we have learned and seen into perspective. What a great week…I think a lot of students had their eyes opened, even just to living a little less judgementally. Hopefully, you’ll find out. We hit the road early…
