“It made me want to sponsor a child so they can have what I have, and to not be afraid to share God’s Word with
other people.”
— Jamison
“I loved it because I’ve never seen anything like this before. It was really interesting. I liked learning about someone else’s life other than just mine.”

— Kiana
