ºÚÁϳԹÏ

Our team has officially been home from Thailand for just over a week and has finally kicked the jetlag. The team completed their mission and all they set out to accomplish (and more)! They come home changed, with the joy of the children as a reminder of the hope that can be found in every situation.

This mission would not have been possible without so many people who contributed to its success. We would like to pass along our deepest thanks to the following people:

• GROW Staff and Children: For following through on all your commitments to make this project possible. More importantly, for opening up your home and hearts to us, and allowing us to witness the incredible community you built. For your hospitality, the incredible food, snacks and gifts you showered our team with, and for your love. Over the course of eight days, we became a family and will share a bond for a lifetime.

• Thai Construction Crew: For allowing our team to work alongside you for a week and learn new techniques. Your team's work ethic, expertise, and willingness to have 10 of us onÌýyour construction site was beyond impressive. It was an honor to work together!Ìý
