"Through traveling and serving and unplugging from the world, It reminded me how simple life can be and how much closer service will bring you to the Savior."

"It literally changed everything. It changed my relationship with my son who was on the trip. It changed my view of my role as a mother. It changed my view of what i have and don't have. I left more humble, grateful, and full of love for myself and others than ever in my life."

"It strengthened my testimony and healed my heart in unexpected ways. I'm closer to my savior and am filled with conviction to drive forward like never before in my life."

"HXP has opened my eyes to many different cultures around the world and how people all around the world believe in the same God and that we all aren't as different as we thought."

"It taught me so much about friendship and the power to quickly bond with someone without distractions."

"There is something extraordinary that happens [on HXP]. It's a once in a lifetime chance to put behind a world of chaos and self-centered living for 14 days of true connection and selfless service. And if you embrace the experience fully, your life will never be the same."

"I loved getting to know the kids. Getting to see why they were there, what they were looking for, seeing them change throughout the trip, seeing them open up, being able to learn from them. I will forever treasure the relationships I was able to create with them."

"My all time favorite part about humanitarian experience is the Builders. I'm so grateful they open up and allow me to become their friend. In such a short time you become so close and connected. I have learned from them in so many ways."
