Today was the day that we finally got to experience the Atlanta sun that we have been prepped for. Because of this, we took advantage of our free time to ride up to and hike down of Stone Mountain (picture from the top is below). We spent the morning visiting with refugee families from, Somalia, Congo, and Syria. It was eye opening and humbling experience to hear the stories of these families, some of which were our age. At INSPIRE this afternoon we were able to teach a class, and share with students lessons on homelessness. It was great to see the students engage in activities that we had prepared. After dinner, our brave leader Alyssa and newly graduated Pauline, saved us all from the the residential cockroaches that have invaded our room. If you don't hear from us in the next 24 hours call for help!
