Service Learning group visit to London Ecumenical AIDS Trust

An important objective of the service learning course is for the students to learn about issues and meet people they wouldn't normally do if they were simply taking classes in London. Today, we went to St. Paul's Church near Kennington (not St. Paul's Cathedral) to learn about HIV/AIDS issues in London and the UK with David Musendo and Steve Penrose from the London Ecumenical Aids Trust.

Naiara, Miranda, Ann and Sarah pose during a break in our activities.

Jocularity among the participants, and Elyse talking with Meredith and Rachel.

David speaks with the group, and Paige makes a point in the discussion. Drew is NOT dozing, just looking down for a second. :)


We broke off into smaller groups to talk about stigma and HIV.


More group brainstorming ...


Members of the group WAIT entertained and talked about HIV and abstinence.


After a long day, we head off to a nearby pub to relax.
