FavThings Apr1

Emily: My favorite thing so far was definitely Christ the Savior Cathedral! I absolutely understand how people can say that art is spiritual. It physically took my breath away to look at all the amazing artwork in the Cathedral! (I took pictures, even though I wasn't supposed to!)

Sara-Elizabeth: So hard to choose a favorite thing! I have to say I've really enjoyed the food, and that's been surprising. I loved the borsch. I've enjoyed giving stickers to kids. I've really enjoyed watching our Kentucky kids drink in this experience.

Kendall: I think my favorite thing has been the people. It's fun trying to talk to them even though they don't speak English. Their clothing style is really neat. They all wear boots. I feel like I need to wear boots now.

Jackie: My favorite thing is borsch (however you spell it) It was tasty also by the church there was a monkey! I got to pet it, it was so cute! :D

Canaan: I'd have to say that my favorite part of this trip has been just walking around Red Square and the Kremlin, which is basically downtown Moscow. Outside of downtown Moscow is a little underwhelming but it's still pretty cool…and dusty. That's pretty much my favorite part so far.

Matt's favorite thing is meeting up with old friends.

Leesha: My favorite part has to be just being here. I am so excited that I think everyone might be getting annoyed with me but I just can't help it! I am so happy that God made all this come through for me! I truly thought that I wouldn't be able to come. It is so amazing that words won't even explain it. I'll just have to show you all my pictures when I come home.

Sarah: My favorite thing about the trip so far would probably be the different things that we saw in Moscow and also getting to know everyone better. That everyone was able to come up with the money and that we have not had that many complications! I am having a great time and can't wait for the camp!

Rachel: I think my favorite thing so far has been getting to meet all the new people! Everyone is so awesome and I'm loving the chance to get to know all of them better. I can't wait for the Russian kids to get here and for camp to start! I'll see you guys when I get back and I am excited to show you all my pictures!! :-)

Ashley Elizabeth: Agh! It is so hard to pick what my favorite thing has been so far! I guess I have to say…experiencing a new country. I have really loved learning about the people of Russia. Finding out how they are different from us, but especially, seeing how they are very much the same has been very intriguing. I can't wait for camp to start so I can meet all the kids!!!!!! I'll see you all when I get back! Miss ya lots and love ya bunches! :-)

Hi! This is Julie (Rachel's mom). It's really been quiet around here without Rachel! I'm so glad all of you were able to go. I'm praying for all of you and I know God will bless you all tremendously!
