Miami

Spring break CP style. Just got back from a 3 day trip to Miami Florida with the Disney Missional Team and a group of international disney cast members. We got to visit and bum on the beautiful beaches, as well as go to the world famous South Beach. It was fun to experience the hollywood version of Miami. The most fun I had on the trip was spent with a non profit organization called Touching Miami with Love. We did a lot of hands on work they needed done and believe me we sweat and got our hands dirty.

At the end of a long day serving we got to read and play with some of the children in their after school program. In this picture you can see Leon, a 7 year old who lives in Overtown, a poverty stricken area near downtown Miami. I got to read with him, play games and just love on him. It was sad to say goodbye, but I got plenty of hugs and will keep him and his city in my prayers. It was an awesome trip and was a great opportunity to spend time with the CP's. I spent a lot of time with my co worker and friend from China Sissie who has been coming to our Bible study and decided to come to Miami. It has been such an answer to prayers to have her so excited to be involved and learn things about Christianity and what it means.

The semester is halfway over, but I really needed that boost of encouragement that the Miami trip provided. It definitely made me thankful that I live, work, play, and serve in the beautiful city of Orlando.
