Going to Ghana has been a life-changing experience. I came into this trip thinking we could share something with the people here, but I have learned way more from the people here than I could have ever shared with them. The missionaries, teachers, and national pastors have shown me what it means to live for Christ above all. Through their testimonies, they have shown us how God can use a fully surrendered life to change a nation. I am grateful to have learned so much from such Christlike people, and I will never forget the friends I have made here. Leaving Ghana will be so hard! Thank you to everyone who has supported our team financially so we could get out here and for praying diligently for each one of us.

During high school, I decided I wanted to teach English in a Spanish-speaking country. When I found out about this ESL missions trip to Peru, I jumped at the chance to fulfill that desire. I did not expect to fall in love with the Peruvians as much as I did, especially the Barzolas (the family that took us in for the two weeks). I am now praying about teaching English in Peru for a whole summer.

The saying goes “home is where the heart is.” Then, I guess Ghana will always be a home to me since so much of my heart is here. We came here to minister to the people, but I never expected them to touch my heart the way they did and to leave such a huge impact. It was incredibly humbling and moving to be surrounded by people who, by Western standards, have so little but are willing to give so much. And it’s all for the glory of the Lord. God did incredible things on this trip, and I feel honored to have been able to experience it all with such wonderful people. It was a small glimpse of heaven, being able to worship God and glorify Him with my brothers and sisters in Christ from Ghana.
