This mission trip took place during the beginning of the summer after my sophmore year in high school. My church youth

My family and I went on a trip to Pennsylvania‚ Florida for my little cousin birthday. My heart was rushing and my face was lit up from the excitement that filled the room.

Cleveland is home of the Cavaliers‚ Indians‚ and the Browns. July of 2017 is was able to take a trip to Cleveland‚ Ohio. The main reason we went was because it was a huge bowling tournament. I finished 911th out of 1418 kids in the u20 division. The drive was the best part of the whole trip though. It was really interesting to see how different places are and how different the country is in different states. Driving through Iowa was really strange. There was no hills at all.

I was on my way to church with a few of my best friends‚ a typical Wednesday for me‚ at least‚ that’s what I thought. As I was laughing at a joke someone had made‚ my youth minister called.

It was a relatively small group from the church that I attend‚ about 9 of us if I recall correctly. We were signed up‚ had fundraisers‚ and were all ready to fly to Los Angeles‚ CA and head to the Los Angeles Dream Center. During the week long short term mission‚ my heart broke into millions of pieces‚ not like any other time in my life. It shattered‚ at times I often found

So‚ my trip from Los Angeles to Sacramento was very different from my other trips. Sure I once when on a road trip to Portland by land‚ but it was actually different. Our family basically had 3 days to go anywhere we wanted to‚ and we brought only a few supplies. On road trips‚ my family just goes yolo on the spot. Whatever is there to eat we eat whatever there is and everything we do it like what is available. So it started after getting out of our hotel. We drove for the next 1 ½ hour just driving
