This week was fun and amazing, but it was also life changing and eye opening.  Most of the places we went were in rough parts of Philly and made me think about how lucky and selfish I am.  But this week was also about going out of your comfort zone.  In my track group (social ministries), this happened every day.  One such place was called Don Guenella, a home for mentally challenged boys.  It's an amazing place! 

During MFUGE it is not really out of my comfort zone to talk to others and serve them, but this week I realized that it was out of my comfort zone to admit to myself that I often take what I have for granted.  Seeing the living conditions of the Philly people and hearing stories of their harsh and often sad lives made me look at my life in a different way.
