COMPASS VOICES

  • Compass is an incredible experience that unites people with a common interest to serve. It allowed me to discover new aspects of myself in a completely new environment while also constantly learning about others as well. I found that being in a new environment allowed me to see who I am as a person and not just who I am in a comfortable and familiar place.

  • On Compass, I rediscovered parts of myself that I forgot were there. I found the girl that never questioned whether she was valued; the girl who accepted love without hesitation; the girl who constantly felt alive; the girl who loved every moment of her life and feared nothing. This trip reminded me that she still exists. I know now what I have to do to help keep her alive.
