We've just returned from a missions trip to Jamaica.  I thought I would have some great, touching words for a blog post but like last year, I sit here looking at the photos and I cannot come up with a single adequate word for all we saw and felt.  So no words, just photos and a video.  But I would like to take a moment to encourage you to go on a trip abroad.  Yes, there is a whole world of need and hurt and poverty here and yes, the USA is a mission field too.  But we've found that going outside our country, finding a different context and being far removed from our comfort zone put us in a place that God was able to use to show us the rest of the world through HIS eyes in a way we've yet to experience when we serve the needy right here.  I encourage you to be open to that possibility.
