Well, I finally got the rest of the pictures sorted and edited. They give only a small glimpse into the work that was accomplished and joy that was given on those two short days. Thursday, October 28th, 2010 Friday, October 29th 2010

Beyond our Expectations
Our incredibly busy schedule and the lack of consistent Internet connectivity has simply not allowed enough time for me to sort through and post pictures of each day. But it´s just miraculous what God has accomplished in the last two days. It seems like whatever we have asked God for in prayer, He gives! Thursday […]
Health Day
Looking back over the events of the day, there was a definite theme of “health.” In the morning, we attended the final ceremony of a health conference where, along with other speakers, a doctor who used to work for NASA, spoke on the importance of preventive medicine versus simply treating disease. It was neat to […]
Character Blitz
Wow! What a day! Traveling a few hours west to a well-known school this morning, we taught the qualities of Attentiveness and Forgiveness. From telling stories and illustrating the importance of character during large-group training sessions, to sharing personal testimonies and answering deep questions in small-group classes, we were kept busy for the whole day.

First Day; a Full Day!
From Chicago to Guatemala City; from Guatemala City to San Salvador; from San Salvador to Lima! For the team of 50 or so young people, the day started at 1:00AM and wasn’t over until after 11:00PM. When we touched down in Peru, there wasn’t much time for respite. After stopping at our hotel to drop […]
Tonight is the night!

That doesn’t leave much more time for preparation, but God has supernaturally allowed literally impossible things to get done over the past few days. Take for example, the business cards for all 50 team members. After days of work, the portraits and family […]

A Bates Sized Project
Over the last month, I’ve had the privilege of working on a cover design for the Bates family’s newest project: a soon-to-be-released music CD featuring 13 rousing hymns for piano arranged exclusively by Erin Bates! And like pretty much everything else the Bates family does, it is not your normal sized project. 🙂 Being in […]
A Ministry of Art
Last weekend, Robert, Daniel and I had the incredible opportunity to learn a very unique skill under the tutorship of one of the worlds leading chalk artist, Matt Bowman. Up until about 10 years ago, chalk drawing was a dying art, but through the diligent efforts of Eternity Arts, this very effective means of communication […]
