Inspiring Teens From 14 Countries Gather at UCLA for 1 Week


I had the opportunity to speak at UCLA for a youth program focused on bringing people together from all over the world to better understand each other and be leaders in their nation.

There were about 110 teenagers from all over the world (South Africa, Tanzania, England, Philippians, Korea, Central America,USA) coming together for 1 week and to create an "action plan" for a service project to lead back home. I was the opening speaker for the week and challenged each and every participant to make the most of their week, to be fully present and connect with as many people as possible.

After the speech, we had a Q & A, lunch and connected in smaller groups. It is great to know we have amazing young people in our world today!
