This week was the first week with semester students. There are several students here from Bethel University in Indiana. They arrived in the DR in September, had language school for 6 weeks, did some traveling, and now they are split up into ministry sites until December. Ryan and I each have 2 students working with us, and to help them get to know the community better, and have a little competition between the 2 sites, we sent them on an El Callejon scavenger hunt. Here are the rules:
| "You have 2 hours to complete as many of the tasks below as possible. In order to consider a task “complete” you must take a picture of the person, object, or action required. At least 1 member of your group must be in the picture in order for the picture to be considered valid. Each task has a corresponding point value. We will meet back at the social work site at 11:00am to review each picture together and determine the winner. Every minute you are late is minus 50 points. If you have any questions…you are on your own." |
Each "task" was assigned a point value anywhere between 200-900. They ranged from things like "Tule flexing his arms" to "Holding a chicken." Unfortunately, the Social Work Site team's camera broke, so we were unable to judge correctly who won. So we decided to all share the prize of going out for pizza. Here are a few pictures from the Micro-finance site team.
Preaching at the pulpit of Paula's church: 500 pts
A Waterfall: 700 pts.
A Girl with Hannah Montana paraphernalia: 800 pts
A Giant Heart...300 pts
The other side of the wall...600 pts.
Touching a pregnant belly: 700 pts
Ani and a member of N*SYNC: 500 pts.
