Northington's SoNShiners

Gateway Mission

Captain: Lauren Duncan

Recorder: Lindsey DeLoach

Advisor: Dr. Ladonna Northington

Site: Gateway Mission, Jackson, MS

Our project was the Gateway Mission. As we began our day, we were given the background of Gateway Mission, and we were oriented to the warehouse where we worked.  Our job consisted of sorting through a huge pile of donated items. Good items were placed in one box to sell and bad items were thrown away. It was a big mess!

At the end of the day, our group felt like we accomplished a lot. We were very pleased with our work. The volunteers at Gateway Mission were very appreciative of our service. SoNShine Day 2006 was a great experience for Northington's SoNShiners. (Reported by Lindsey DeLoach)
