Thoughts from delegates about their delegation experience
Lessons from Delegates on the 2005 Romero Delegation:
“I have learned a lot from this experience about the direction I want my life to take and what I can do to make a difference.”
“I learned that poverty doesn’t always diminish hope. There are many good and wonderful people around this world, and there are many people who feel the need, as I do, to demand that the Church have an option for the poor!”
“Poverty and unending exploitation are forms of deadly terrorism. I must continue in the struggle for justice!”
Inspirations from 2005 Sistering Delegations:
“I have learned so much from my experience with SHARE people and with the people of El Buen Pastor. It will take a while to sort everything out, but the result will be overwhelmingly positive.”
“I really think my understanding of trade issues has finally clicked on this trip. I think I also have a better grasp of how communities function, thrive, and overcome adversity. I learned a lot about myself and my goals.”
“While in El Salvador , I have learned to appreciate the similarity in our lives -and the differences. Also a deeper sense of faith and how wonderful the Salvadoran people are.”
“On this trip I have seen that people are very resilient, but poverty can push them to their limits.”
