On a Mission

So I spent the past 3 weeks doing mission trips to Belize. We went to Belize City, Crooked Tree & Orange Walk. We several different ministries with the locals from Belize. Everyday spent in Belize continues to amaze me. The color, natural beauty of the country & people are breathtaking. It's the poorest country I've been to, yet the people are so generous & loving. I had the opportunity to go snorkeling in Caye Caulker & go to different Mayan Ruins locations. But the highlight is getting to know the locals & how they live.
