(May 12, 2008) — Serving Jamaica changes you. Serving anyone changes you, of course. But there’s something about being part of a massive operation, in which everywhere you turn you see lives being transformed. Lives of Jamaicans. Lives of Americans.

Some of us may not return physically to this beautiful jewel in the Caribbean. But we will never really ever say goodbye. Thank you, readers, for letting us share a bit of our wonderful experience there. Thank you for letting us come, Jamaica.
