Summer and Ongoing Life Community Serve: Senior Center and Sunday School
Villa Rancho Senior Center is the place where I have started to volunteer my time each Saturday. On Sundays, as you know, I teach Sunday School for preschool and kindergarten. I am seeing it as a way to give back to the community, but also give my heart and soul a revival. I used to be completely afraid of Senior centers. In fact, I would get anxious, scared, or completely disturbed by all of the elderly walking around, or illnesses and changes, and limitations and heavy chaos permeating throughout an entire complex. My grandmother and my grandfather on my mom's side were placed in senior centers when they became unfit to live on their own anymore. I was horrified. I thought it was going to be a huge mistake. I was opened to a world wherein in which community service and profession coincide, where employees and individuals are family. This was a world, I had long since limited myself from because maybe if I didn't know nor care, or set foot in there, I would be none the wiser...
