Thank you so much for taking such loving care of our children. What an amazing journey and cultural experiencia.
Blessings to all the leaders and families on your future endeavors.
Dolly is so immensely grateful and so am I.
I Bless God for all who were instrumental in this Trip. Thank You for all the care you all provided for the last 2wks for the team of young people. I pray that God will continue to keep this program so others may also experience this adventure. Many Thanks ??
God Bless You All.
Emma and Violet? I’ve fooled!! XD!! Big love for all that made it to the top 30 and the many more things that did not fit on it but made the last weeks special.
