Meet at greet

Last Thursday Mahsa, Jeremy, and myself went to Emmanuel Faith Community Church to meet with Jo Jones and see the Stepping Up program in action. I had such a blast meeting all the kids that were there. Jo introduced us to everyone and right away this little girl came up and introduced herself to each of us individually. It was so adorable. Each of the mentors were at a different table working with different group of kids. Jo explained to us that we had come on a quiet day when they have all the kids together and generally there are more kids around. Jeremy, Mahsa and I went around to each table and talked with some kids individually as well as the mentors. It was a nice introduction into the program and a way to wet our appetites. It's really apparent these kids like being there and I'm happy to be a part of this.

Tomorrow we meet with Jo and present our ideas to her to see which direction she would like to go. After that, Jeremy, Andy and Mahsa will go on Wednesday to do some scouting. I'm so excited!
