Suitcase packed, camera charged and ready to go, audiobooks downloading to my ipod, excitement rising as leaving draws closer. In less than 24 hours I will be headed to Central America with my dad and a team from my church. Since I was little I had longed for this day, I would travel far from home to a land unknown to me to witness and love the orphans. I am ready for this trip to change me, for the experience to grow me. We will be painting a tin roof, doing a vbs, playing with the children and bringing the hope of redemption. God has blessed me with this opportunity, I am so thrilled. May God be gracious to us and bless us and make His face shine upon us, that His ways may be known on earth, His salavtion among all nations.
