Hi my name is Loren Vander Schaaf and here is my perspective on the trip. I was told that we would be exhausted when the week was over – but that it would be a great week. The 1st evening was by far the most challenging. Meeting all the guys (I am the new guy from Iowa). Everything late and a long ride. I thought what was i getting myself into. Thur morning 180 degree turn around getting to know great guys going to projects and meeting local people. Yes sleep is a bit on the limited side, van rides are a bit long (allows for great fellowship). But the ministry and projects are great so is the authentic food. I am thoroughly enjoying the trip and I know that many prayer are being lifted up for strength and endurance.
