I will always have random titles!

All of a sudden, I found myself thinking sociologically when I was sitting in sociology class. We were beginning the worksheet "Meet the Sociologists". When we began to learn about Jane Addams it had me remembering.  I was remembering a mission trip I went on with my church in the summer between my 7th and 8th grade year. We traveled to the bad, run-down neighborhoods of New York. We were all put into groups and were assigned different missions. My team was sent over to this house called the Hannah House.

The Hannah House was a house for women and children to go for a place of food, shelter, warmth, love, care, clothes, showers, and whatever else these needy women and children needed. This house was ran by a lady who just had a huge heart for helping others. While there, my team saw and met many women who stopped in to get free clothes and a glass of milk or even just pick up a pamphlet about God. (We were on a mission trip after all!) Anyway, this lady and the Hannah House reminded me of Jane Addams and the Hull House in Chicago! Jane Addams was a sweet lady who had a huge heart for helping women and children as well. Her main focus was women's suffrage and the imbalance of power between men and women. She also worked hugely on world peace. And although this lady at the Hannah House couldn't really show the world peace, she definitely showed this neighborhood a place of peace and a place of love. I definitely respect both of these women for the work that they have done to make this world a better place!
