I would say the biggest spiritual impact this trip had on me was to remind me of how much more I want to bring God into my classroom. I sat in on a Math lesson where the teacher so naturally pointed to the graph on the chalkboard and started talking about how we are imperfect reflections of God. It was a good eye-opening moment for me.

Several teachers and students came to interact with our team. They had created a carefully planned presentation that included a Nicaraguan traditional dance, a liturgical dance, a worship song, a father-son guitar duet, and a video presentation. We felt honoured and blessed by all of their hard work and dedication. Our visit clearly meant a lot to them.

From the minute I heard about this trip, I knew I wanted to come. I didn't really understand why I felt such a strong pull towards a place I'd never been to, but I know God has His reasons.
