Tommy on Boston trip...

The Boston Project really encouraged the need of help to the poor. The poor were the first ones that Jesus looked for and helped. So being Jesus' disciples, we should do what he did and praise him for it. That was basically what the focus was on this week. At the end, we did a "spontaneous service" in downtown Boston. This was when we split into groups and served in any way. I ended up talking to a poor man, Bob Smith, for about 20 minutes. He had been handing out tracts for 17 years and inspired me. I feel this mission trip has increased my knowledge of the poor, myself, and God in a great way.
