PRE-TRIP REFLECTIONS: 53 days to departure

Today, we had a meeting to brief the parents about the trip. I am sure all of us can see how concerned our parents were. Imagine, 10/11 days without them :( gonna miss them loads!

So why did our parents agree to let us go?
(1) to let us experience and give us a better perspective of what is out there in the world
(2) to bond with peers and build our character
(3) to learn to be grateful for what God has given us
(4) to do God's work - sharing with the less fortunate, 'bless others as you have been blessed'

Even though it would be hard for them for them to let us go, they chose to put their faith in God for our well-being. So, a big THANK YOU!! to our amazing parents for giving us the support that we need.

Keefe, Edward, Teresa and Jane speak to the parents,

It was a wonderful sight to see all the parents present during the meeting. We, the mission leaders, will continue to work with the parents in offering up this mission trip project to the Lord.
