PROJECT INSPIRE 2008

Application

General Information

"Our hearts, fixed on Him and His work, will keep us on course, however the wind blows. We will follow His prophet. We will see the greatest work of our lives as nurturing others as the Savior did. We will see the potential in others as He sees it. We will treat every resource that comes into our hands as a trust from Him. We will see our victories as a gift from Him and so be proof against pride. We will not fear because we will know we are on His errand."
(Elder Henry B. Eyring, Sept. 18, 2001)

After 4-5 days like this, possibly without showering for that long, describe the attitude you would most likely have about the Project Inspire Experience.
