Student Participant Comments
"Since the travel study I have developed a stronger love for learning...I feel a greater connection to Christians of all faiths. The New Testament makes so much more sense now that I have an understanding of the many peoples taught by the prophets and apostles."
"I especially enjoyed mass at St. Stephen's and sacred music at Notre Dame...What a blessing it is that I had the opportunity to learn and travel!"
"I feel a greater connection to the... people we study about. Being able to walk the streets where they lived and worked, walk through the houses they lived in and the concert halls and churches and palaces they performed in, was just incredible."
"As I have gone on this tour...I have such a better love of the gospel of Jesus Christ but I also have a higher respect for other religions and their beliefs."
