It only takes one: A Teen Camp Recap
They say it takes a village to raise up a child, you are a part of the village raising up Alaska Natives teens.

Same Country, but Worlds Away - Reflections on the First Day in Rural Alaska
I am part of a mission team of women flying almost 400 miles from our base camp in Fairbanks to do Vacation Bible School with the children in the village, as well as teen and adult Bible studies. The five of us come from Oklahoma, Alaska, North Carolina, and Illinois, and we are as different as can be in age, background, and temperament. But we all want this trip to be successful and to reach rural Alaska Natives with the hope of Jesus Christ.

Your heart is pounding in your chest, mostly from excitement, but there is a little bit of fear, as well. This is it. This is what you have been preparing for the last six months!
But then, things start to go wrong.
