Mexico Mission Trip - May 2008




We had the great pleasure of taking our boys on their very first mission trip!!! We believe that kids are never too young to serve the Lord! As our boys grow up, we want missions to simply be a part of their life experience; something that our family just does!


And boy! Landen sure was gung-ho! He started off with the hammer, hammering his first nails. But mostly he painted. He was such a hard worker! He hardly even stopped to take a break! He was hot, sweaty and completely filthy by the end of the day! And so was Logan, although I'm not sure how much work he did. Actually, I take that back, his work was smiling his beautiful smile to everyone and giving them that boost that they needed!
At the end of the day, our team had built two houses for two different Mexican families. They were tiny little houses; just one room and not even a bathroom and yet the families were so grateful! It was an incredible experience for our family to be a part of! It was also great to have Nick's parents, Graham and Gill join us! It was the end of their visit to us and it was a blessing to see them jump right in! Thanks, Dad and Mum! And thanks, LBC for allowing us to be a part of this great trip!
