Thank you, Chicago! We are on our way home after a busy week working with the Br. David Darst Center.
Final day in Chicago before we head home was educational. We went to Kolbe House to learn about the jail ministry and then spent time at the court house watching first appearances.
Day 3 in Chicago was our free day! Bus rides, train rides, Chinatown, Millennium Park, and deep dish pizza!
Day 2 in Chicago was filled with French toast, learning about Streetwise, helping sort at Crayons to Cradles, and pasta bar.
Day 1 in Chicago was filled with baking, reading, learning, and service. It was a great day!
Our crew arrived in Chicago late last night and we're already up cooking this morning. It's going to be a great week!

AP Biology students had the best time touring AG Hill at NDSU, which has interactive classrooms and state of the art labs that provide students with real world skills. A huge thanks to people in the Biology department for giving us a tour, teaching us about what it’s like to be a Biology student at NDSU, and what it looks like to be part of research.
