This has been so thrilling for my husband and me. Thank you for the updates and pics. What a memorable experience, possibly once in a life time to use the knowledge you have gained in a closed classroom in an onsite classroom.

Dear APU and the entire team,
Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us by way of this blog site. Mandy Kelley is our daughter and Justin our son and we feel so much closer to them through reading of your adventures. so many times our children are blessed to live out our dreams…and you are all doing this. How exciting it all is – all the daily experiences and yet I ponder how much more it shall be someday to see Christ face to face. Thank you again for allowing us to live this adventure with you. Give our love to our children Mandy & Justin Kelley. Blessings to you all in the Name of the Lord.
In Christ we live and breathe and have our being,
Larry & Cindy McCormick
