Students and chaperones at Diría practice worship songs before Mass. |
First of all I want to start off by saying that I am extremely
blessed that I got the privilege to come on this amazing trip. Yesterday at the
work site we had Mass with the community, who has become a second family to me.
After Mass 4 little girls had prepared a dance just for us. I sat in the front
to video tape them. After they finished, I found myself in tears. Not just because
how beautiful and graceful they were, but because it amazed me that they have
found something like dance after all they have been through. As I wiped my
tears, one of the little girls, Yara, who has definitely captured my heart, ran
up to me and gave me the biggest hug ever. I have no idea how I’m going to leave
these amazing people. Oh and Mom, you’re so right, I will most definitely be
that girl from that airline commercial when I leave. I miss all my family. In a
way, I wish you were all here with me for this amazing experience, especially
you, Mommy ;).
P.s. Mom, Dad and
Alex, I am praying for all of you and love you all so mucchh. Please wish
Kaylyn a Happy Birthday from me!
