Students Speak...Shaquala Fields...


Family Fun Park

It was so cool to see the children get along together without arguing. They played together (see-saws, swings, slides, volleyball, etc.) and we went to the zoo with them... way different from the zoo's in the New York! :) Seeing them with their big smiles as we took the to the swimming pool was so heart-warming. Although these kids may not have as much as we have in America, they still know how to smile and stay happy. It was such a blessing serving the ice cream as they thanked me with a smile. Manners is something that these kids do not lack.

 

Olive Grove Church

It was interesting to see such a contemporary church that spoke total English here in the Philippines. It was a short reminder of home. Just to see the people in total worship within such a welcoming atmosphere was so amazing. After service it was cool to see how after they were dismissed people still stayed to worship joyfully. And how they all came to greet us; the hospitality was amazing!
