ALSO Saskatoon Day 2

ALSO Saskatoon eagerly began their service projects today.  We had three groups serving at different locations in the Saskatoon area.  


The largest group of students went to work for  Habitat for Humanity.





The cool temperatures, ice and snow made the work challenging.  The yard was first cleared of debris.



Most of the day was spent moving a mountain!  Kyle, Say Eh Htoo and Landon chipped away at this frozen pile of dirt.  It all had to be moved into the basement of the home. 

Gerry did his best to keep up with the guys.

Ms. Heinrichs, Vice Principal of Vincent Massey Community School (and Sara's mom)  was instrumental in bringing our group of students to help out at her school.


Brett makes a 'buddy'



Laura helps out during story time in the pre-kindergarten class.



Another group of students spent the day at the SPCA.  All three groups with spend the next 2 days at these locations.  We are looking forward to learning new skills, building new relationships and serving to the best of our ability.
