Our Final Day in Belize

Today was special.  We spent the day in San Pedro village a place that holds a special place in my heart.  Our Belizean partner, Mr Rafael Cob lives in San Pedro.  Six years ago Rafi and I met on a roof as we were replacing the zinc on his church building.  Rafi and I became instant friends during that week and since then we have worked side by side on projects for over six years.  We returned to San Pedro three more years and built three homes in the village.  We made many friends and forged some deep relationships.  While our work now takes us to many different villages we always....always come back to San Pedro on Sunday to worship and work side by side to show that love does not care where you are from or your status or your money.   Love is blind to all the things that often separate us...we are all the same people of God and together we can change the world!

Speak from Your Heart


Let me tell you short story from last year's trip to Belize…on our first day we visited the village of Concepcion in the Corozal District. The schools we visit always have a special welcome ceremony which usually includes assembling the entire school for a formal welcome program and gifts for our mission team. It is customary for the leader of the group to give a welcome speech so I was asked to address the Concepcion primary school students and teachers. As part of my brief speech, I introduced the team. I was especially proud to introduce Davin, my daughter, who was on her first mission trip with me. As I completed my brief talk the school Principal and master of ceremonies took the microphone and handed it to my daughter and asked her to also briefly address the school. As you can imagine, Davin who is 12 year old, was quite intimidated and scared to be standing in front of the entire school in a place that was not at all familiar to her. She responded shyly that she did not know what to say. The master of ceremonies very politely said to her…”That is okay…just speak from your heart”. Davin then proceeded to share some brief comments in front of the entire school. I was so proud of my daughter that day. The reason I share this story is because when we speak from the heart it travels far and touches deeply. So always speak from your heart.
