                        called  me  as  a  Christian  to  spread  the  Gospel  far and




                        wide, and  as  an  individual,  He  has  called  me  to  use




                         my  passion  for  music for  His glory; this trip  was an  op­

                         istering  every  day  of  the  two-week  long  trip,  was




                         unique.  The  schedule  was  tiring, with  jet  lag  having




                        some  affect  on  their  busy  days, but  it  was  well  worth




                         it.  Although  the team  ministered  to  countless  people,




                        the experience also  had  an  affect on  each  of their own
