Today is the final day of our trip here in Gorey, and we all have mixed feelings--sad to leave our new friends and old friends, but also happy to see you all soon. We've been having a blast here the past two weeks and it has been a true blessing to see each and every one of your kids grow so much individually in their walk with Christ and with each other. They are all amazing young men and women of God who have worked hard and served humbly and have just been so fun to get to know! :)
We have had some awesome experiences the past few days; here are a few sweet pics to give you an idea:
(Jeremy's/Clutch's 16th birthday ICE CREAM cake..homemade by us girls; special thanks to Caroline for working at Ben & Jerry's)
A lot of the girls bought sweet ukuleles from the local music store...YGUB
(Youth Group Uke Band)
Our second open mic night was a success...soo many kids came out to sing along to "Party in the USA"
Our trip has been AWESOME and we the leaders are so proud of all of your kids. They have shared the love of Christ with all of the Irish teens and have showed them how much they are cared about and valued. Tonight will be a very sad night to say goodbye to everyone, but with modern technology we know that we can all keep in touch on Facebook, iMessage, Twitter, etc to continue those relationships and good conversations...It is a bittersweet day!
This will be our last blog post...see you all tomorrow, 'Merica game STRONG.
