Day Six



Today was our last full day of our mission trip in Boston. We went to Fenway Park, and took a tour, learned some very cool history about it and the players who played there. We got to tour the green monster, the press seats, and the famous red seat that marks the farthest home run hit in the park. We all enjoyed it very much. 






After the park tour, we went to lunch at Tasty Burger. We had some fun drawing on the chalkboards. 


We wrapped up our lunch and walked over to Newberry Street, which is known for its shopping. We all split up into smaller groups and made our way down the street filled with all of kinds of shops. After about 2 hours of shopping, we drive over to Yankee Lobster where we had our last group meal.



 After we all ate, Susan announced that the winner of the cooking competition was Abbey, Tommy, and Isobel. They cooked rice, chicken, and vegetables, their appetizer was a garden salad and they baked Rice Krispies for dessert.



We just finished a closing ceremony of our week of mission and God's work. We all passed around a candle which represented God's light and shared the most impactful thing that happened to us this week as well as how we saw God in the person sitting to our left. Susan also gave us a gift of a coin that says "Love never fails" that she saw in the monastery and immediately thought of our group. The blessings we encountered this week have been monumental and we are forever thankful and hope to have made a difference. We are off to play manhunt outside and play some cards before we go to bed and get up early for the journey back home tomorrow.
