I gotta tell ya, I can't believe that this is really my last, my very last, mission trip. It's been 4 years since I first sat in those vans on the way to Mexico n my very first trip. I've seen so many people come and go through the years, and now, it's pretty surreal. You don't really think that your high school days are done until everything begins to wrap up. I owe everything to the Huntleys. I honestly felt that at the end of confirmation, I would stop church completely, as did 33 students in that class. Chad and Beth came along, and everything changed. I always went to youth group and I've never missed a mission trip. This trip was unique not just because it was my final mission trip, but because we were helping out with a disaster that happened in my home state of Texas, which actually felt more meaningful. Trips like these seem to just open my eyes more and more. Not just to what God wants me to do, but what I can do in volunteering around my community. And I owe it all to Chad, Beth, Nelson Bell, Mike Coltrin, and everyone else in the Youth Ministry. So to everyone I say thank you, and Goodbye
