Wednesday night, testimoines have been the best night ever. The emotion and how quickly it happened. We were all worried and comforting each other with the exception of one person that we all know but we won't name. It was just unity and emotion. It was beautiful!

My highlight was Hayley's hug, after I wrote her an encouragement note saying: "When the world seems like all of it's people have turned on you and no one is left to listen, Jesus is always just a prayer away". He loves you and also has compassion for everyone. You're strong and courageous, don't let anyone hold you back. Her hug made all the difference.

The highlight of my trip was making new friends in Christ. Whether they were from our youth group or from the people of Butler, PA. I still made better friendships then I started out with on the 4th. Being at the park was also the hightlight of my trip. Being here, experiencing new cultures and people, made me realize how different I have it. This has been a great experience and I can use what I've learned for the future.

The highlight of the Butler, PA trip was when we shared our testimonies, because I think it truly showed the strength and power of God. We all got a lot closer by learning about how we all started our relationships with Jesus.

My favorite part of this Butler, PA mission trip was when we met Sissy and Brandi. When we knocked on the door because their license plate said, "Jesus Is Lord". We got to talk to them for a long time and it was really great.

My most memorable moment was the night of testimonies. the entire week I wanted to see/experience change, when all along the change that wonderful, life-changing change was right in front of me in all my friends. That change was when Jesus saved us.

My favorite part of the trip was all the testimonies. I was really touched when I heard all of them to the point of tears. I am really happy I went. Plus the food was all most the best part, the testimonies beat it by a sliver.

My favorite part or most inspiring part was talking to Brandi on our ATL. The profound faith she has and maturity at her age really wants me to change how I live. She changed her friends, essentially life to follow God. It really inspires me. Also, beggining to read "Mere Christianity", by C.S. Lewis was awesome. It makes me think.

My most memorable moment was talking to Kristine in the nursing home. She was very encouraging and taught me something I didn't know about myself. In a since she kind of open my eyes.

The highlight of my trip was going to the NET and doing construction and pray walks. I liked pray walks because you got to pray for the people around you and everything else about of Butler.
