I was very blessed to be able to attend Mission Fuge this year! One of the many blessings during camp was meed Quartiez. he is moving up to the 7th grade this year and is excited about playing basketball for his school. He has three brothers, one of them is his twin, Maraiez, who attends Mission First also.

We have been so blessed by playing games in an air-conditioned gym, unlike other recreation groups! I would say we have been really lucky! Quartiez has taught me a lot of things during Mission Fuge. He has such a gentle and fun-loving personality. There were many moments when I would look over at him and he would be doing a dance off with one of his friends, or just having a fun time! He is always able to make me laugh by dancing or telling one of his many knock-knock jokes.

In the beginning of our friendship, we were assigned break away into groups and get to know each other. After 15 minutes of introductions and talk time, Coach Bridges came by and asked Quartiez to tell him what he knew about me. Quartiez ended up repeating every detail that I had told him! It was astonishing to see these kids hearts. They really care so much for us and enjoyed the opportunity to get to know our hearts. It was then that I new I would be learning so much more from him and the other Mission First youth. It was an amazing experience!
