This was an interview with teenagers Blair Adams (Statesboro FUMC), Christy Starling (Brooklet UMC), and Olivia Chester (Statesboro FUMC).
Q: What will be some of your biggest memories of all you've done for God this week?
Blair: Definitely helping with the kids.
Christy: Yeah!
Blair: They were so excited about everything we did with them. And we were all excited too.
Olivia: I met this little girl and spent some time with her and was helping her. When we were about to leave she came up to me and said, "Thank you. I had a good time that you were here." That really touched my heart because she meant it.
Christy: I think one of my biggest memories will be this one little boy at Bible school. He was a real wild child, all over the place the whole time. Then when we were closing for the day, he volunteered to say a prayer, and it was so special the things he said. Like he really did get something out of it.
Blair: It was from the heart.
Olivia: I'll remember talking to the lady whose house we've worked on. She was showing us pictures of her kids and grand-kids and would tel us their names and where they lived. She seemed happy just to have someone to talk too and someone who would listen to her.
Christy: And the church service we went to in the Bahamas. It was so loud... and long!
Blair: It was something different than usual. And the little boy playing the drums. He was thirteen and couldn't even see over the drums.
Olivia: I won't forget them.
Blair: And all the pastors the sat on the stage cheering on the preacher. It was neat.

Liv,
We are so proud of you and miss you. I've enjoyed your Rav-4; I went mud bogging in it this morning. I should have rolled the windows up. There's mud inside and out. Look forward to seeing you tomorrow.
Love, Daddy
