Reflection on Wednesday August 15


Wednesday August 15th the 10 of us, and Pastor Richter, went to St. Mark Lutheran Church. Today was Olivia’s last day with us so we had a day to fill out an evaluation packet. Before we did that, as always, we did an opening worship. Our worship had a communion portion to it this morning. This was only the second time we have done communion together. It is nice sharing the bread and wine with the other people in the group. After worship we started with the packets. We sat separately and filled them out with quiet chat every once and a while. It was quite the quiet day until we all finished and got a nice break from writing for lunch. I think after being so quiet we were all ready to talk to each other since we have grown so close as a group. After our lunch we took our packets to the library and went over each section as a group. The answers we gave provided some good feedback, or so I thought. The end of our discussion was the feedback we gave on each other. We all shared stories about the work we did and had some great laughs. When we all talking I don’t think anyone wanted to leave because it felt like the last day even though most of us have two more days. 

When we finished talking about our stories we made our way back into the sanctuary for closing worship. Since it was Olivia’s last day with us we did a sending for her and wished her safe travels and the best at school. All of us will miss her the last two days and I hope she will miss us too! After our day of reflecting I hope our feedback will help the program grow. It has been such a great experience for me to be able to do such great things with such great people for the summer. I could not have asked for more through this job.
