A Documentary

Last week I had the privilege of watching a beautiful documentary that was filmed by a recent Calvin alumnus, Chris Mills. The documentary details some of his experiences on a Calvin service-learning spring break trip in Houma, Louisiana. I have posted that documentary here in this post, and invite you to watch. Besides the fact that I think that from a technical perspective this is an excellent documentary, and thus reason for posting, I also think that this documentary reminds us what is happening when people talk about taking part in service-learning. Behind the theory are the voices, footsteps, and fingerprints that breath life into this way of engaging the world and the lives we lead together in community. Below is the documentary presented in two parts due to space limitations on YouTube*.
