I’ve been at the MHT for 7 years and this is now my 8th year. When I was younger,
                                  I would always think to myself why I had to go to extra school on Saturdays, while

                                  my friends got to hang out together. I really resented going because I thought that I
                                  could do better things. When I got older, I realized that it wasn’t that bad. Yeah, I
                                  could be doing other things, but at the GLVN program, I was able to learn more
                                  about God and myself. I remember my first day going into the program. I was so
                                  excited to go to school with my brother and sister for the first time. I was also going
                                  to see my cousin every Saturday. The more I went, the better my understanding was
                                  of God. Also my Vietnamese got better over time. Then came the pandemic year.
                                  Although doing GLVN in my room was less stressful, I did miss being in person and
                   Mừng           I missed interacting with my friends. However, that year was when I learned the
                                  most. I was able to learn more about the stories of God and the world he created.
                  20 Năm          This year, in 8th grade, I learned more about myself and how to love myself. I learn
                                  how to interact with others and create memories. The GLVN program at the MHT
                                  impacted my mental health by making me love myself more, but also challenging

                                  me to figure out things in a creative way. At the MHT, I also learn more about how
                  GLVN            to be a better Catholic and work on my Vietnamese. - Jenny Nguyễn
