Again we had some connection issues so I write Sundays blog on Tuesday from my couch. Something came up last minute so we didnt get to do the baby dedication. So I preached and Kathi interpreted for the local deaf man. It was nice to see him. Jamaica has a problem accepting those that have challenges so we make special attempts to show Rolando some love....

Friday was a great day for everyone. We never really know what to expect on Friday but this year it was our biggest day with about 35 kids including a couple that just came for lunch. This is Leonardo who is normally a little tyrant. But on Friday he was an absolute angel. What happened? The kids had a good time with some crafts and then a great chicken lunch....

Mosquito noun insectus voraciousness royal swarming pain. National bird of Jamaica. We have been coming here for many years now, and we have never experienced this much heat, or this many mosquitos. Yikes. They are everywhere and in swarm. Kathi told me before we came that using coconut soap, shampoo and lotion will keep the mosquitos at bay. HA! It seems to me that they know what's good, and just like me they like coconut....

Wednesday was the longest day of the week. Usually Monday is the longest day, but not this week. First of all we start with VBS. As usual, we had at least twice as many kids as we had on Monday. The great thing is though, that Salem church made good and gave us some more bodies; and boy did we need them....

Tuesday was a great day to see some old friends and to remind us all why it is we come here. It is also a time to be thankful that God has put us in a position of being able to help. When we deliver these items we are so blessed. Not in a shallow way, thanking God that this isn't me, but that God allows us to be a part of His plan as we demonstrate His love to these people, by following His call to serve....

We arrived Sunday in Jamaica after a very long travel day complete with a 5 hour layover, and not so much sleep on the plane for me. Kathi on the other hand slept fairly well on the plane which is unusual for her. Our driver for several years, Lyndon, picked us up and we were off to the grocery store with a long list of necessities for our time with the kids....

I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert" Is 43:19 ___________________________________________________________________ Normally a few days before our annual mission trip we have a packing party.

As a travel agent I love a good story about a trip taken. Every year we celebrate a trip in a 1 donkey power car to a 1 star hotel in a forgotten town without so much as a reservation (because they didnt use a travel agent?) with no infinity pool, beach, or butler service.
I am sure the maid service was shotty and the place smelled like amimals and forget turndown service or a mini frig.
Even so, it was the greatest trip ever. So great that it has created huge celebrations and most importantly paved the way for millions to take a trip of their own to a much better city with streets of gold; expenses paid in full.
I pray you all know the child who was born on that trip.
Merry Christmas to you all and a blessed new year.

Vincent was a sweet, creative young man who loved helping out with his brother and sister. He loved Dragon Ball Z an...
