Hello, family and friends!!:)
These past couple of days at Hillhouse have been absolutely amazing. Everyone is growing so much in their faiths and relationships with Christ, both English and American alike!! The dramas and worship team impacted a lot of the teens, and the games have brought us all closer together. Many of us have already formed friendships that will definitely last for a long time:) (We have also convinced a lot of our English friends to come visit us in America!! hahaha) Many of the teens from our team have shared their testimonies, whether it was on Easter Sunday, or during the retreat. We have all stepped up in some way, putting ourselves out there, hoping to be used by God in any way possible!! And so far, He's used us every time we put ourselves out there:) This retreat has honestly been amazing, there's way too much to put here!!! Each of us has a different story, so when we get home, I suggest asking each of us how God has used us and what He has been teaching us this week. I'm definitely positive that every single one of us will be crying tomorrow when we say goodbye to all of our English friends - many of us have already discussed staying here in England..... Shhhhh;)
A little personal note:) - hi to my mom, dad, Hope and Ryan!!!! (I survived the plane AND I'm 17!!! Hahahaha) I miss you all so dearly and wish that I could talk to you:( Hello to Greg as well!!!:) I miss you too:(
Also from Aaron Panagotopulos - he says hi to his mom:)
Love all of you guys so much and thank you so much for your prayers, they've honestly helped so much!!! <3

Hi Holly and team! Hugs to all of you. Holly- I knew this was you writing even before I scrolled down and saw your personal message and name. :-) Thanks for the great update. We have been praying so much and know that God is working in all of you. We will be praying as you say goodbye to all of your new friends. Lots of love, mom (Mrs. A.)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update Holly!! Keeping you all in prayer and thought as you finish your Hillhouse journey. I am sure it will be hard to leave your new friends, but knowing that you all met in one place to honor God, together, tells me that you are connected spiritually and no distance can be a problem! It helps to have facebook, email, etc!!
