The parts of this mission statement that I plan to embody while out serving with our community partners would be ' delight in diversity' and ' a community where members work together in friendship and respect'. I think that these two parts of the mission statement each have their own meaning but also are extremely similar. Diversity is something that is always going to exist when it comes to service to others. The people we serve with are diverse. Not just the color of their skin or their economic background but each person has their own story. Working with the community builds relationships allowing each story of the served and serving to come out. When we learn to appreciate the diversity or "find delight" in it, we can appreciate our service a lot more. This is where the second part of the mission statement that I plan to put into place comes in. Working with the diversity of our community partners, we will create a community of working together to better not only the people but to better ourselves. The friendship and respect that will follow these actions will help keep the diversity but also bring a sense of equality.
