Mission Trips
I have been on two mission trips, the first one was to Honduras and the second one was to Costa Rica. I loved every minute of both the trips in how we were able to spend many hours working and playing with the children. In Honduras we spent our mornings and evenings at the SDA orphanage with the children; playing sports, eating, swimming, cleaning, maintenance, and most important having WORSHIP with them. In Costa Rica we worked at a public school one on one with the children in a Vacation Bible School Program and painting parts of the school that needed the most attendtion. Both trips were amazing and Praise God even though I could not speak with the children that I was able to communicate with Smiles, hugs, playing, and giving them attendtion. With the focus of going on more mission trips to Spanish speaking countries gives me a strong desire to learn spanish so I will not be frustrated when with the children.

Ya I know exactly what you mean. I've been on two mission trips to Spanish speaking countries and each time I come back wishing I could speak the language. I'm hoping that this Spanish class really helps us out.
