This month has been a very eventful one. Over the last two month have been very busy since the end of Christmas break. Here at OCSI we have an entire week dedicated to service. For one whole week, the entire middle school and high school takes a one week break for the normal school work, and dedicates themselves to serving the community. I (Andy) was in charge of organizing 16 different service opportunities to close to 200 students and staff for an entire week. It was a little bit overwhelming, however after the fact, a lot of good came out of it. 
  1. First off the students got to learn from their teachers the importance of service and how to serve
  2. Teachers got the opportunity to disciple their students in ways they usually do not.
  3. The community was affected by Christ. In many ways we served the community we shared Christ with hundreds of people.
The school as a whole went to several nursing homes and special needs facilities. We cleaned beaches and animal cages. We performed dances performances, musicals, theater performances that all conveyed the gospel message. We served homeless people, children, and people from overseas. We served churches by creating them websites and doing odd jobs around their churches. The staff and students put a lot of hard work and a lot of good came out of service week. Please check out the videos below.
