From Tragedy to Comfort - Tadhg's Story

From Tragedy to Comfort: 3 Trips Changed Tadhg's Life:

"So the general concept of a mission trip is that it's actually poorly looked on by a lot of people as you're flexing how much money you have and you're just showing off with all these pictures of all these cute little kids. It is so much more than that. It's nothing to do with that. You know what God has done in your own life, and you know what he can do in the lives of these kids who just are underprivileged." - Tadhg

Tadhg shares about the impact of his first mission trip on changing his perspective. He says it's something you can't learn in school, it's something that has to be experienced.

Tadhg shared a tragedy that he and his family went through and how God used that situation on a trip to India where a father had lost his son to help bring some comfort in a difficult situation.

After the mission trip ends Tadhg shares advice on how to avoid the trap of coming off the "high" of a trip to return to everyday life. Now you have an opportunity to minister to people that you see every day.

In one week on a short term mission trip to India Tadhg was able to share the gospel with thousands of kids using the simple tool of a gospel bracelet. It has five colors on it and is a tool to explain the gospel to children.
