My Amazing experience
By Kala Kellerman
From Georgetown College

My experience at Alpha and Omega can be summed up in not only one but many words… amazing, breathtaking, eye-opening life changing and the list goes on. This was my second time coming to Alpha and Omega and before I came I was going through some difficult times. At one point I was not sure I would make it on the trip.
The Lord spoke to me and I was able to continue to raise the money for the trip. The kids, both times have shown me how god works. I continue to stand in amazement. The love Odali and Kathy have for God and for Alpha and Omega is so strong and fearless it seems. Being here the first time changed some of my life and how I lived it. The second time around I have learned and been given more than I intended. I have thought a lot where God wants me and it’s awesome to think alpha and Omega helped me so much. A bible verse I think of is Micah 6:8
He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
Alpha and Omega, the kids, Kathy and Odali, Everybody showed me what the Lord requires of me and now I am truly Changing and I continue to hope Alpha and Omega has a part in it.

Ready to serve.

My heart was hungry for God
By Thomas Owens
From Georgetown college

Entering into this trip my heart was weak and my hunger for God was strong. Upon arrival I immediately wanted to return home with the lack of contact with my parents. However, this trip has been one of the best experiences of my life. The children at Alpha and Omega each have an amazing story about the trials and tribulations they have endured. Even though all their troubles, all they truly want in life is love. I had the opportunity of getting to know Junior. He has such a true light about him that shines. Coming to Alpha and Omega has helped me learn so much about myself. I have learned that I have so much and give so little. An incident that really hit me hard was on the 4th day here. Junior was making hearts out of paper then made an origami bird out of just a scrap piece of paper. I then gave it to Junior. Later, on our last night here I dropped off some clothed at his room and on the top of his closet was the origami bird that I had made for him. I said to him, “you still have the bird I made?”
Junior then said “of course you made it for me.” This instance may seem small to someone else, but it truly did affect me. He kept the scrap piece of paper because someone took the time to show love and make something for him. This trip has truly been remarkable and will forever remain in my heart.
