YMCA Street Feeding- Day 3

Today was my second time volunteering at YMCA. I did the same thing as the last time, helping to prepare and serve the food, but I had new experiences which led to more observations. I sang a song! This was something new for me, as I am normally not comfortable singing in front of others. However, as I was serving the food, I was suddenly asked by the music team whether I wanted to sing a song. I think they were running out of songs to sing, as I was pressured into singing a song. I was panicking, and the only song that I could remember clearly was Jesus Loves Me, as I recently sang that. Even though it was a Sunday School song, and I thought that I would be laughed at for singing such a simple song, it was surprisingly well received. I could see smiles on the street people's faces, and some of them were even singing along. I could see that all of them enjoyed it. Sadly, I could not think of any other songs once I was done, so I got back to serving the food. This experience
