Student TestimonyÌý
“I participated on this trip May 2018 and I cannot already wait to go back. I feel like I learned so much during this trip and it can really help me to continue to develop spiritually. I also built great relationships with the staff and the children here while also being able to serve and learn more about my faith. I also got to see every member on our team this year grow as an individual and it’s something I would love to see again.â€
