Costa Rica 3.0

My heart sings! Water you turned into wine, opened the eyes of the blind there's no one like you Into the darkness you shine out of the ashes we rise there's no one like you  Our God is greater, our God is stronger, God you are higher than any other. Our God is Healer, Awesome in Power, Our God! Our God! I had an amazing trip with so many amazing people. I was able to connect with people I never thought I would connect well with and I miss them already. I thank God for the gift that this trip was to my spirit.

I loved getting to know them and talk about life even if it was only for a little while. I was able to explore some new places with the new students and visit some favorite spots with friends from last year. It was awesome to spend time with the leadership team, to see their hearts for the students ...
