I have <\/span>recently<\/span> returned from Faith\u2019s trip to Gettysburg and Washington D.C., and I am trying to reflect on the time I spent in those places. I thought about mentioning every place that our group visited and everything that we experienced, but that would not give you a good understanding of what the trip was like. For me, <\/span>the <\/span>D.C. <\/span>t<\/span>rip was a learning and growing experience, and there was one place that I experienced in particular that contributed to this. <\/span><\/p>\n

The Holocaust Museum was something that I was already looking forward to before we even entered the building. For one, I admired that it was an entire museum dedicated to the Holocaust and honoring its victims and survivors. I was expecting great things from this museum beforehand, but it still managed to amaze me. We started off our self-guided tours in an elevator to go to the fourth floor, and when that elevator stopped, and those doors opened<\/span>. <\/span>\u00a0I immediately saw a simple sign that read, \u201cThe Holocaust\u201d. The sign reminded me that what I was about to see in this museum was pulled from a real, terrible event. Knowing this, I went through the Holocaust Museum with perspective, and I tried to picture the people I was reading and hearing about. What struck me the most from the museum was a story from a Holocaust survivor who recounted the day that she, her mom, her sister, and her sister\u2019s child entered a concentration camp, and her mom sacrificed herself for her sister to survive another day. The Holocaust Museum was truly the most impactful place that I had the opportunity to experience on D.C. Trip.<\/span><\/p>\n
