Desired

Desired was created in August of 2006 as a result of a camp experience I had. The summer of 2006 I was a camp counselor at Camp Good News and spent my time reaching out to young girls, mostly ages 10 to 15, and teaching them about Jesus and his love for them. I came home wanting the experience to continue! I took a look around and saw that there were plenty of girls in my youth group who needed a "big sister" or a mentor in their lives to help them learn how to follow the Lord in everyday life and most importantly to help them understand his incredible love for them!

Edison High School's Week of Tolerance

This week is for promoting diversity and tolerance of everyone on campus at my high school. Each day will have a specific topic of discussion. The topics include Religion, Gender Orientation/ Sexual Preference, Race, and Disability. With each topic, comes activities and educational events. Along with each topic will also be a video, in each homeroom class, explaining what is going on throughout the week, and also a description of examples/ statistics of issues surrounding the topic of the day.

Developing Children's future

In my project, i have been trying to develop leadership in children by conducting them into the religious education. My control group is going to be some children of the members of the spanish youth group of St. John of God Parish. This kids are between 5 and 12 years old. In this project, my purpose is to develop their behaviors as they were growing in the community of St. John of God.

Religion School

I teach children, between the ages of four and seven, every Sunday at the Islamic Association of Long Island, Religion School. I, myself was a student at this school for ten years, and after i graduated, my request to become a volunteer teacher, was granted. I have been teaching there since September, and although this is only my first year as a teacher, I intend on teaching there for many more years to come, and I enjoy is a lot. It is an unforgettable experience and i absolutely love working with little kids.

Finding Heaven in Hell service project

On the roof of a small hut, with a machete in my hand thousands of miles away from home, working in what felt like 150 degrees; I stood here never knowing that this trip to Tadzebichen, Mexico would change my life forever. The smell in the air brought memories of the forest after an afternoon rainstorm, while the blueness of sky took away any worries that I may have had. Fresh wind gently blew against my face.

I.H.S. CROSS

CROSS, Christians Reaching Out Serving our Savior, is my school's bible/drama team. We go to different churches and youth organizations to perform skits, mimes, and puppet routines, all to glorify God. We have a great impact on our community, and we try to target the youth in the area. We want them to see that there is a life beyond sex, drugs, alcohol, and abuse. Another aspect of CROSS is that we help those that cannot help themselves in some way. We are a non-profit organization, and we do fundraisers so that we can help those in need.

Cancer Support

Since being diagnosed with cancer, I felt the need to start a support group in the community. This will be a place where cancer patients can come and share their experiences. It is a place to cry, rant, share joy and so much more.

Unveiling the Meaning Behind

 Many people have a tendency to prejudge or be prejudice towards people simply because of what they wear (For ex: How Muslims wear the veil- Hijab). This project is to raise awareness and diminish the bigotedness that may arise among people of different religions through drawing parallels with  each other. For example, one can refrain oneself from saying terms that may deemed to be derogatory. One can also take a step and find why people may wear/dress in a certain through researching and becoming aware of their religion.
