As I begin to process the last six weeks, a thousand stories run through my head. Stories of joy, stories of hope, and stories of peace. Stories of hurt, stories of injustice, and stories of violence. These stories are not from books or from media, but from real people whom I have talked to and spent time with. There are faces and emotions behind these stories, as well as cultural and historical influences. How will I share these when I return to Canada? How can I honor and respect the people I have met and speak the truth? When people ask, "How was your trip?" how can I answer in a way that conveys the depth of the time I have spent here? These are tough questions, but ones that must find adequate answers. I am praying and trusting that God will provide direction and guidance for me as well as the rest of my team.
