My year as a volunteer

So I initially started this blog by trying to put into words my overall recap. I don't feel that I can even begin to articulate what the year has meant to me in words. Instead, I'm going to provide you with some pictures. A picture says 1,000 words!  As I begin graduate school and transition out of the program I  find  I  am at a loss for words to put into words my thoughts and feelings. I am so grateful that I spent the year as a HM volunteer. Please enjoy :) 



JP and the ladies. He did great :) 

I remember going to JCU with Sam all the way back in 2009. Little did I know that she would be my future roommate!


This is a picture from missioning my first week at Saint Martin de Porres High School with all new staff. 

Villa Montessori. Those little ones kept me busy :)
I starting my year off with goals and trying to find balance. This was the same day as Harvest Day at Villa!

When I was first in the classroom I tried the lecture approach.  My OGT class was not having any boring lectures from me.  I learned.
Data, data, and more data collection and campus ministry were two of my other jobs at school. 
This was one of my main cooking duties. What a hard life for me!
Beautiful sunsets at the various parks!
This little guy kept me busy on the weekends. 


Are you sure that you want me to tutor Math!?!? Math!?!?! Here is my friend Angela, Algebra 1 teacher for freshman. She smiles in the middle of the creation that we both made early in the morning to prepare for a day of Math class.




I hope that these pictures help you to get a sneak peak into my year!!

Love, 
Tina
