helping in the classrooms, playing with the kids outside, or just talking to them. All the students spoke English so it was easy to talk with them. All the kids I met were really happy all the time, talking about how much they love Jesus and how blessed they are. I felt bad for them knowing how less fortunate they are. This trip was life changing because it brought my class closer together. We were forced to work together whether we liked it or not. One night, my classmates and I were all…

Last weekend was Fall Break, which is why I got to spend time with you guys. It was super chill, and I really loved it. You guys are home. We can chill out, eat, talk, watch a movie, play a game, laugh, cry, anything. Thank you for that...for being home.
