My Church is planning a mission trip there in the fall. I have always wanted to visit there and knew that someday I would. It is an absolutely beautiful country with the most breathtaking views I have seen (in pictures). However, it is also a poor country with so many that are suffering. That is where I...and my little man will lend a hand. I think it is a PERFECT opportunity for him to see firsthand the importance of service to others. He has lead a somewhat sheltered life until now. Not anymore :-)! Even at 6 years old, he can appreciate the needs of others and this will allow him to stretch beyond his own comfort zone of giving. I am excited!
Lots to plan in the meantime, especially just the cost of the whole thing. Yet I know, God will provide as He always has. I am not worried. And, you all know that I am a big "saver" and very "resourceful". We will be fine! My prayer warriors out there can certainly keep this in their prayers though. Blessings to all till next time!
