STORIES FROM OUR MISSIONS TRIP
“ This week I was expecting for God to show me something that would help me realize that I should be more thankful. I have become more thankful. I was touched by these kids, even though a lot of them attacked me. God wanted me to pray for those kids. The trip also helped be more prepared for the future.” – Aaron Napier
“ This week helped me realize that I need to be grateful for my parents, because I met one kid whose parents died. I am going to pray for him.” – Austin Napier
“ There was a girl who said that she didn’t have many clothes and you could tell she didn’t because she wore the same clothes both days she was there. It tore my heart apart seeing that” - Katie Palmer
“ I had the most adorable group of kids that have ever existed on the face of the Earth. There was Layla, Zamarie, Neveah, Deja, Nashyyamiah, and Kashia. Layla was my baby, she always wanted to sit on my lap and go everywhere with me and she was as cute as humanly possible, but you better believe this four year old can cuss you out in a heartbeat if something happens that she doesn’t like. Zamarie never stops moving. One moment he’s in his seat likes he’s supposed to be and the next he’s jumping off the stage or he’s on the balcony. He only has one outfit. Neveah is a total sweetheart. She loves playing with my hair because I have “white girl hair” and “that’s cool”. Deja, Nashyamiah, and Kashia are sisters. Neveah and Layla are their cousins. None of them share the same pair of parents though they’re less than a year apart. I know Neveah and Layla’s mom abuses alcolhol and drugs which they don’t understand why its wrong. These are just a few of my babies and I’m going to miss them like crazy. I cried when they all hugged me and said they would miss me” – Amber Smith
“ I saw a kid who was 4 and won a prize, but it was taken away. After they handed out backpacks, he saw a ball that fell out of my pocket and when I gave it to him, his smile was so BIG!” – Conner Lehman
