Testimonies
- "My summer with the Missioners of Christ was the first time in my life when I really felt my heart grow. By encountering Christ in the poor and the in the little ones, I was given a heart of flesh; it was as if for the first time I was truly experiencing compassion. The image that is impressed in my mind to this day is the hope-filled smile of kids who, in the midst of great suffering, have an incredible trust in God's love for them."
  
  "Going to Honduras convicted me of the truth that I myself need to spend time with the poor for the sake of my salvation. It's hard for me to put into words why this is the case, but it has something to do with a great gift that the poor have, and which they bestow upon us when we spend time with them. This mysterious gift never fails to draw me closer to the Lord in a very unique way, and thus I need to spend time with the poor for the sake of my salvation."
  
  "I was able to experience a deeper realization of what the Body of Christ means and the universality of our faith, even to the most remote corners. They were strangers who did not speak my language, didn't even know where my family came from, but they opened their homes and lives to us so generously. They showed so much thanks for simple prayers and our presence for the week and we were the ones cared for."
