Tonight is our emotional night (not that the whole week isn’t emotional). This is the night where we gather as a group to share how our experience has been and how God has been working through us.

As usual, lots of tears were shed, and there were amazing stories of how these young lives are being changed and the impact the trip has made. Their eyes are being opened to a different kind of life and showing them how lucky they are to have what they have. They are also realizing that the smallest little thing can bring so much joy and can really make a difference in the lives of these “ticos.”
