"So, how was it"? This is the question I am asked the most about my experience in Zeway. Most of the time, I find myself at a complete loss for words. How do you put an experience like this into words? Whoever coined the phrase "a picture is worth a thousand words" was a true genius. If a picture is worth a thousand words....a video is worth even more. If you didn't have the opportunity to attend "Hope in Africa", I invite you to watch a video created by our trip leader, Matt Kouri. It truly captures the very essence of our trip and I believe it will touch your heart.
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these." Matthew 19:14

Yes, "how was your trip?" is the quintessential no no question to ask after someone has been overseas and experienced something like you have. At our old church, when we had staff coming back, they not only prepped them for the return, but they also prepped us on how to interact. One of the main things not to do was ask that question ;). It is way to broad and can really make a person feel disconnected. I try to stick to more specific questions that are able to be answered in a brief interaction ;).
