Here We Go...

Introduction to 3rd world living....

I got an email from Wendy yesterday...I hadn't heard from them in a while so I was starting to get a little worried. She said the power had been out for a week or so due to the heavy rains. They are working on day 9 without running water. Over 200k people are now homeless due to the rains and flooding and many of the crops have been washed away. Thankfully, the sun is peeking thought the clouds today since it is the first time they have seen it in weeks.

Here we go...Honduras Bound!

Keep us in your prayers! No body said this was going to be easy. In fact, the Lord tells us that is will be difficult. But oh the joy that comes from serving God's people and leading the lost home to Him!

Lord give us strength to match the challenges ahead. Give us wisdom and good judgment. And let us carry this cross with joy and exaltation!

Gulf Shores


I was in a wedding last weekend in Gulf Shores. My friend Megan from high school tied the knot so I got to go to the beach! Holla!


I clean up pretty good, eh!


My nephew Izaak decided that he didin't like his supper. So he spit it up all over me.

Tab, Izaak and I on the beach. The weather was awesome!


I have the cutest nephew in the world...this was a pretty risky shot considering he vomited on me the day before.


Cold water! My sister Sarah and Izaak.


Aww, so sweet! Sarah is such a good mommy!

Don't get too excited...I still don't have a camera yet, or a phone cord. Pero se Dios queire...but Lord willing... I will have one soon!

Let Your Light Shine

I got to spend some much needed time with some of my closest friends last night! We made little candy bags for the kids in the neighborhood from the J-Team. The J-Team is a group of 9 ordinary people with 9 extraordinary gifts...they are like Fruit of the Spirit Super Heros! Mrs. Vicky made little salvation tracts with the J-Team characters and we put them in the candy bags with a HPC card and some little toys.

So we kept our light on for the Trick or Treaters and maybe shined the love of Jesus into some dark households.

Here are a few picks of us hanging out. I was so excited to see everyone!

Mary Beth - watching the Hulk and writing a systematic theology paper that was due at midnight! Oh, the life of an intern!

ATM meets the Westside! KP, Erin and Me doing it gnome style!

This one is just too hard to explain. Kelly, you make me smile!
