Reflecting on an amazing trip!

We've been back at school for a week now, and I am still thinking about the trip. We really could not have asked for a better experience. We had an amazing group of students, speakers, volunteer placements, and even weather! Everything fell into place perfectly.

We definitely formed a bond with each other that is unbreakable. We all went through this experience together and grew as servant leaders. I will never forget any of these people. Plus, we were in very close quarters for a very long time; things got a little crazy sometimes (Tuesday night when we were all in tears laughing for who knows what reason always comes to mind!).

As we came back to Eau Claire, we came back with new insight on life and a new vision for how each of us want to live our life. Being a servant leader is a lifestyle. Therefore, we want to bring back what we learned to Eau Claire. While we're all taking steps to doing that in our own lives, we are also in the process of looking for an opportunity to go volunteer in Eau Claire.

Thanks again to all who are reading. Thanks to the students who made this trip so amazing, and thanks to Angie and Kerry for making this possible!
