5. A good service project











The most interesting activity for me has happened this weekend. I took a community service project that taking care of three children with other three partners in my group. I was very pleased with that I could have opportunity to join this activity. During the whole process, it allowed me know that Mississippi College has a close relationship with local community and children. This is consistent with the Mission statement of Mississippi College again that the university environment promotes the social of its students.
First of all, we guided the children around the fair of family weekend. They looked so happy and enjoyed the foods which provided by our college. I was so happy that all the children enjoyed our activity. Also, this activity made me knowing better and deeper of the mission statement of MC again. MC does try it best to meet the statement, and I am trying to follow it as well.
Next, we walked with the children to the stadium for the football game that MC versus LC, fortunately it was not LSU. I understood the basic rule of the football game after Dr. Miller told me a little bit about American football. The strong body and good physical appearance of those football players gave me a deep impression. Well, I do wish I could know the secret recipe that how to be a strong football player. The children enjoyed the game and during watching the game. I noticed their rapt eyes --- I believe that maybe some of them would be the best footballer in the future. Because I believe that children are the hopes for future and a working hard and good attitude could decide everything!

You're right - children ARE our future! And therefore every effort and endeavor we do in trying to help them is justified!

About the rules for American Football: that's one thing I also have to grasp as soon as possibl!
