Our program this week was from Carol Landry of the Vacaville Sunrise Club.
 
 
 
Carol touched on how fulfilling these International projects can be - kind of 1/3 service, 1/3 fellowship, and 1/3 being a tourist.
 
And she also talked about some of the realities of traveling in these countries with heighten security concerns.
