Georgia: Tearful Goodbye

Almost all of my mission photography is done overseas where passions run high and dangers abound . I never expected to see the level of dedication and emotional involvement that this group of American teens showed as they spent a week working on painting and repairing houses of elderly or disabled Americans. Tears flowed freely between this 82 year old resident and one of the workers on her home as goodbyes were being said.
