Mom and Dad! (Q6)

Question 6: Describe one act of a servant leader that you have witnessed in Greece.

A display of amazing servant leadership that I saw during the trip came from two people: Cierra and Dalton! Cierra and Dalton displayed incredible servant leadership both independently and together! First, they came to Wichita to pick me up the day before we left for the trip and opened their home to me. They let me stay the night before leaving and the night we returned from Greece. Throughout the entire trip they were always checking in on me and the rest of the team. As much as we joke about them being "mom and dad" they really are the parents of the leadership team in a lot of ways. They always make sure everyone is accounted for and that everyone is feeling valued. Dalton really stepped up to the task of driving both to and from Dallas! It was something that was sprung on him that he wasn't planning on, but he did it without a second thought and with a great attitude. Cierra encountered several bumps with food due to her celiac, but didn't let this put a damper on her experience or anyone else's. She also took time to find aloe vera gel for everyone who was sunburned. She then also put aloe on my back for me. Cierra just took care of others when they needed her to. I am so grateful to know Dalton and Cierra and to call them my friends. I don't know what I would do without these two!Read more
