Peru was such an amazing time. It was amazing to see how
happy the boys were in each of the homes. They literally have what we had in
our backpacks. Everyday each of them had a smile on their face and brought
great joy to me and my classmates. All they have is each other and the love of Christ.
I will never forgot these two boys who I spent quality time with. José was the
first boy I bonded greatly with. We would always play soccer together and he
would always call me “amigo.” He was a ball of energy who loved to be outside
and pass the ball with me. The most heartwarming experience was when I passed
the ball with a boy named Roy. Roy is eleven years old who has MS. It was very
touching to pass the soccer ball with him and see him smile. Although I had to
help him, he was determined to get the ball every time. No matter what, we can
always count on Christ to help us and grow stronger.
