Team Testimonials:

"This trip has shown me how things that have happened in my life helps me to make a connection in with someone—to understand where each of us has been and how God takes care of us."
"My heart has changed—softer and more forgiving towards those who do not understand God."
"One highlight was visiting with friends I made on the last trip."
"Seeing a single, older lady living in a shack with no water and no outhouse broke my heart. How can we help?"
