One man’s trash . . .

September 17, 2008 at 8:19 pm (Family, Loving God Loving Other)

One man’s trash is another man’s ablity to live . . .
Today I was having coffee with Kevin Queen and he invited me to be apart of a scouting team that will travel to Guatemala City Dump during Oct. There was no arm twisting involved in this . . . I have a passion for Loving God through Loving Others and I jumped at the opportunity! I check with Nikki, grandma babysitter (my mom – named by Weatherly), and the airlines to make sure there was room for me to get there . . . Now less than 5 hrs after this conversation was first brought up, I have a round trip ticket to go and Love God through Loving Others in the Guatemala City Dump Oct. 15 – 20 . . . I am pumped for the opportunity and for the fact God has surrounded me with such a family who Loves God through Loving Others!
Here are a couple of video’s I have come across to give you an idea of what we will be getting into while there.  To be honest . . . if you watch this video – you will know as much as me.  I am going because I was asked and there are people who need to know the Love of God.  Details, who needs those?

The ministry in this second video is not the one we are connecting with – I just thought it gave some insight into the life families are living in the Guatemala City Dump.
