Paul was a great teacher for our group on how to use different tools safely to reach our goal, and he made sure everyone got a chance to use everything!

As we wrap up, we’ll remember this trip with great joy in the future. This trip has taught us how important it is to build relationships with each other and be missionaries in the world but also within our own group of people.
