It was such an amazing time last summer in Puerto Rico. From the many things I learned about myself, my personality and the way I react to things, to the way we interact with others and how to talk to folks about the Gospel, it was a truly life changing event. Then of course getting to take this all back to JU this past semester and a half has been interesting. Despite some difficult times, extremely difficult at certain points, God has still been there with me every step of the way, one of the key things I learned last summer in Puerto Rico. I've also had some amazing conversations with folks and God is opening a bunch of doors for me to begin to invest into other's lives. It's been one heck of a roller coaster, but it's only made my faith even stronger.
My first project in
Puerto Rico was such an amazing learning experience that I have decided to go
back again this summer, this time in a leadership role. I’m excited to have the
chance to invest into other students and encourage them as they grow deeper in
their faith, something I've been learning more about this semester.
As the weather
starts warming up, even if it's only for a day or two at at time, the season
for getting ready for Puerto Rico is back. From the nerve-racking experience of
raising support, to leaders training and praying about this summer's project,
the journey is starting again.
