Over the Thanksgiving holiday, we had the privilege of being invited to meet these incredible kids, and the leaders who serve them, in person. Words can’t even begin to describe how much love was in that place. We went expecting to help out & serve for a few days, and came away with so much more. These kids have been through difficulties most of us will never have to face, yet they still have such an AMAZING capacity to love. Here are a few pics from our trip, and be sure to check out the slideshow to see the whole story! What an INCREDIBLE experience…
