Having been my second time to Piura I can
honestly say with complete sincerity that the people at this
parish are like my second family coming for the first time as a
high school junior, I had no idea what to expect and while it’s
fine that I’ve been involved in several other missionary trips,
none of then have been as an impacting and life- changing as
the one Santisimo Sacramento carries forth. The people here are
incredibly hospitable and welcoming. I didn’t expect them to
change my life as much as I could hope to change theirs through
different tasks. It’s because at the people in Piura that I am
becoming a catholic. I am proud to say that I will be united
with them in the Eucharist this coming Easter.
Whether It be hearing the stories of those
at peace in the hospice or simply watching the awestruck look at
children as you take them to a theatre for the very first time
in their lives, you will be touched by the amount of joy the
Peruvian people have for God and their neighbors.
Santisimo Sacramento is truly a special place
and I can’t wait for the day when I can make another pilgrimage
down for this incredible experience. |
