We have been asked by All Souls to feed back about the trip in October, and our leaders asked us to put together a few words of how we saw the trip for ourselves, this is what my summary of the trip is, individually speaking really:
"The trip to Hungary was a very challenging and intense trip which was also full of joy. For me it was a real step out of my comfort zone as it saw me doing things I had never done before, e.g standing up in front of kids and doing the leading, doing dramas, giving a 5 mins talk to the adults, and also giving my testimony on the CE training. But I am glad I stepped out and did these things as it showed me that I can do this and that with God nothing is impossible.
I went to Hungary as I felt called by God to go, I wanted to see what He had in store for me whilst I was there and was looking forward to it, but little did I know that meant visits to a Hungarian hospital and many days in bed with a virus. However, it was not wasted time, because with me on my back it gave Him the oppurtunity to work within me, knowing that I could not run away from Him, and work in me He did - I was able to close doors of my past in terms of forgiving people who had hurt me in the past, which brought a change of hear and peace to me after what was a turbulent couple of years. It has made my relationship with God stronger and my outlook in life more positive, and though I may have been sick and missed out on some things in the second week, I will never be sorry about that as God knew what he was doing and am so thankful for everything He taught me during that week, as well as the things I learnt during the first week as well.
Even though there were frustrations for myself and the team, it was an amazing two weeks and many of us came back changed and renewed in our love for God and for God's people. And personally I would recommend everyone go on Wet Foot, but when they go to remember, that what you might expect to happen may be different from what God wants to happen, but whatever it is, it will be fantastic because it will have been God blessed".
