“Overall the week at the Life Teen Leadership Conference was one of the most positive experiences of my life. Never before has God's presence become evident in my life, and I feel that we have a greater connection now. At first I didn't know what to make of the trip, but as the time went on, and we started to get to know each other, I really didn't want to leave. The atmosphere was positive, and everyone was overtaken with God that I didn't how to react. I really liked the songs and the music, it was fun to express my faith in different ways. I also liked Reconciliation because it reassured me that God never stops loving us. Lastly, I really liked the Adoration. It was a breathtaking experience that will help me pray for the rest of my life. After coming home my family and I have committed to praying before meals and going to Mass regularly. On the personal level, I have decided to make God present in everything that I do because of this week I know He is always there for us, but we have to choose to make Him present to really feel him. Also, I have decided to try to donate time to others rather than just myself. This great opportunity at the Life Teen Leadership Conference left a permanent mark on my faith and will influence not only my religious life but everything that comes around it.”
