Once each month we are doing an outreach project within our community as a part of our homeschool curriculum. We will be visiting The Lexington Center, a local senior assisted living center, and visiting with the residents as well as playing games and doing projects. This month we brought along all the supplies needed to pack shoe boxes for Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan's Purse. The kids helped the residents pack 13 shoe boxes! The residents enjoyed the project and would have made more had we not ran out of boxes to fill. The kids had a good time also and were great in helping out and explaining what to do. I hope that by visiting the residents we can make some friendships, learn some about past generations, and we can have some fun as well. I just took a few pictures this time so we hope you enjoy a hint of our visit!
