She’s a marvelous ambassador for Christ. To her kidnappers, she holds “no grudges against you in my heart,” adding, “I love you in Christ, and one day I hope to hug you in heaven.”
“Despite what happened to me, my love for you all, my love for Haiti has not changed or gone away,” she said. “If it were uniquely my decision, I’d be working in the clinic today. But I know that I’ve undergone a lot of trauma, emotional trauma, and I need to take some time to heal. But I would like to come back to be there for you and to support you in Christ.”
Agree 100% with this. She is what a humanitarian should be portrayed as.
