Susan Billingsley said, "Wereally fell in love with the children in Houston, sowhen we came back this semester, we started goingto church with the inner-city children in Little Rock. "Club members helped the children to have a daywithout the pressures of everyday life. They spentthe day at The Discovery Zone, after which theyenjoyed lunch together. Their main goal was toshow them the benefits of working for the Lord."This service project helped the girls realize thatthere is life after Harding, and that we need to besensitive to people from all walks of life," saidPresident Amy Ferguson. Billingsley said, "We haveall been blessed tremendously with material things.This helps us see that some people aren't so blessedand that we have a chance to make a difference intheir lives."Through their work, the girls of Delta GammaRho were able to teach the inner-City children aboutthe Lord and show them the benefits of working inHis church. In helping care for these children, thegirls felt a sense of responsibility and increased theirown faith and strength.- Traci Busby"This helps us see that somepeople aren't so blessed andthat we have a chance to makea difference in their lives."Lori Hendricks and Suzanne Dalke perform club cheers duringpledge week.
