This is a portion of a letter written by a volunteer that participated in the July 2009 medical team trip to Haiti. She was part of the dental services group that traveled with the medical team.
"I am writing to thank you for allowing me to participate in one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. I had the best time and have not yet come down from the natural high, it was so moving and so rewarding that words can not describe the feeling. I have tried to explain it to my family but words can not express the feeling of being there. Upon our departure, I met a young man that I can not seem to get my mind off of, and I am looking into the possibility of sponsoring him specifically, and trying to help assure that he gets an education. With all the needs over there, it seems the education is at the top of the priority list.
The medical staff was absolutely welcoming in every way and made me feel like part of the team. I met some friends that I will probably have for life. Spiritually it was very fulfilling, you felt the presence of God at all times and that was wonderful to know that everyone was on the same page.
Thank you and God Bless! Judy"
