Flag of Poland Auschwitz And Birkenau, Central Poland, Poland
Tuesday, August 30, 2011

I dedicated almost an entire day in Auschwitz and Birkenau, it was my main purpose for coming to Poland.

I am getting as much as I can done. I went to Auschwitz and Birkenau today, it was pretty intense. I can't believe I was in two famous concentration camps where hundreds of thousands of Jews from all over Europe and Poles were put to death. I will never forget today, it added to my sense of purpose in like. So many times reflected and the innocent people that lost their lives. I pray for them and thanked their sprits for allowing me to come to Auschwitz and Birkenau and pay their respect. This trip has been a privilege.
