Catching Up

Here are a bunch of pictures from the last 2 teams that I've been meaning to post. I need to do some editing on my flickr account so for now, they're all going to be here. I hope you enjoy!

This is the Poynette team packing vehicles with tubs before their departure.

Poynette Team: You were a great encouragement to me! Thank you so much for stepping out on this new adventure. I pray your lives continue to be impacted by what you saw and learned. The painting downstairs is amazing and all the details of work are appreciated. Also thank you to St. Thomas Church for your support of this trip.




The team from Indiana planned a special trip for the boys and staff. We spent the day at the beach, had supper at KFC, and stopped for ice cream on the way home.

Junior, Maurice, Keavanie (the boy has the hardest time keeping his eyes open and smiling), and Jason ready to head to the beach.

This gorgeous beach is next to Hellshire.

Wayne enjoying some alone time in the sand.

Richard swinging away.

Shaquille... a little on the sandy side.


Isn't it beautiful? While this is what most people imagine when they think of Jamaica, there is much more to the island. It's a special treat for us to get to the water. This was my 3rd time in 11 months.

Keavanie... eyes almost open this time.

Cindy and Chevon spelling words together.

Richard and Scott reading.

Indiana Team: Thank you for all your hard work this past week. I enjoyed your laughter, joyful spirits, and dedication to get the job done. Your patience with the doors was impressive. =) The boys and I also appreciated your help in the classroom. Blessings as you share this experience with your families and friends.
