around noon and went to the ice cream cottage for lunch after a long drive. Sandusky arrived a short while afterward and the week offically began.
Carol Stevens began the week with the first introduction to Deaf culture while I interpreted to give them an idea of what interpreting looked like.
Heidi and Bobbi watched with tired eyes after leaving at 4am to arrived in time.
Later in the afternoon we practiced the bible drama for the next day. "When a soilder tells you to carry their pack for a mile, carry it for two."
Later that evening we experienced "Fun Drum Rhythm Circles" with the Baltimore Association of the Deaf Blind group. Kathy had a blast and danced away to the beat.
Sunday evening after a long morning of Sign Language classes, Deaf Bible study, Church services, and Deaf community lunch, We sat down to watch "Through Deaf Eyes" a PBS special about Deaf culture that features our church.
On the first work day (Monday) Bobbi takes down an old speaker that was left from the previous hearing congregation.
Maggie and Katrina spent their time prying up old shelves and cleaning out a hallway to make way for the new food pantry.
Things are going well so far. We are learning lots and sharing together. We are looking forward to the next 4 days.
