wow. All of you guys have met tonight to meet each other and share a bit about yourselves. I hope all of you are able to support each other as you journey back to a time in our history that reflects some of the most atrocious human behaviors as well as some of the most courageous and humanitarian acts ever seen. Each of you will experience something extraordinary and will come away from the experience a different person. You will be able to (hopefully) look at the atrocities that continue this day in some parts of the world with a new understanding of how this is allowed to happen. You will be able to look into the soul of evilness...and into the soul of consumate goodness and maybe make a personal decision on how to live your own life and how to contribute to humanity to stop the persecution of others. May you all travel safely. Take care of your own hearts, your own souls. And, maybe, have a little fun to lighten the journey. Mrs. C (Libby's mom)
ReplyDeleteI wish your group safe travels as you embark today on your journey. You are all an inspiration to so many others. What you will see, hear, and feel in the next few days will not only impact you, but all of the people that your lives will touch during and long after the trip is over. A wonderful "ripple effect".... I will share this sight with friends and family and I look forward to checking on your travels every day. Enjoy your friendships as you learn and grow together :) Bridgette Lanphere (Kelsey's Mom)
