ICS Green Corner
November 2018: There was some trashes in this corner, such as rotten tables and chairs and old banners.
January 2019: After some cleaning works, this corner becomes a resting corner. This corner is made up of old magazines, old books, flawed pottery etc. Even the sand in the pot is dug out of the ditches.
We've cleaned this corner. The original idea is just to bless a person—“Please cherish this corner, enjoy a moment alone.”
