El Salvador

So Nathan is planning a trip... This summer a group from church will join up with another and head off on a missions trip to El Salvador. Last Friday evening he found an envelope in his notebook after returning home from the teen meeting at church. It contained a significant amount of money to put toward the cost of the trip. Tomorrow we have an appointment to apply for a passport. I've never had one of my children leave the country for anywhere other than Canada so this is a big thing for me. Nate is excited and looking forward to going.

  3. What an exciting and wonderful opportunity!

    Thanks for your comment on my blog. It was very thoughtful of you. Looking back, I was so oblivious to what you were going through back when you were trying to raise your children. I should have paid more attention and taken notes! LOL

  4. That is awesome! I want to go on a mission trip too. Does he know any Spanish? I have some basic Spanish CD's he can borrow just to get some basics if he would like.
