( The backyard from the worksite today )  Michael Cain: I hope everyone had a chance to check out the posting today (technical difficulties were prominent). I had a chance to do some "heavy lifting" with someone of the students today, pulling up carpet and such. I have been consistently impressed by the good nature and behavior of the students on this trip. I have had some time to reflect upon my own high school experience over the last few days and have wondered if I would have had the moxi, patience, consideration and good will as a teenager to do the kind of work these kids have done. The more I think about it, the more I realize that these kids are very special and how much they believe in the mission of Mercy. If they were my kids, I would be very proud of them . media type="custom" key="3631675" //**==== = Tonight's Reflection Questions: = Write about someone you have met, or gotten to know better on this trip.
