Sincerely, Sierra Arbeau ASSISTANTEDITOR Cindy Nababan The moment I stepped out of Toronto Pearson Airport, I knew that this country would shift a whole new world for my 12 year old self. A new school, a new society, and a new culture. Since then, my eyes have been widely opened to the differences in this world. Instead of excluding myself from the differences in the world, I try to accept and love them like how God would. Sierra’s issue about travelling brings out a unique essence of the different countries accross the globe. Its visual aspect alone gives you a chance to realize how special God has made each country and its citizens. And although we may be different in every other aspects, God wants everyone to be united in praising and glorifying His name. Phillipians 2:10-11 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father Sincerely, Cindy Nebaban
