Images from trip to Puerto Vallarta

So no trip to Indonesia this summer, but I did lead a small team to Puerto Vallarto to investigate joining an additional missions partnership in Mexico. The tacos were good, the Spanish practice was fun, and the trip was a success. Here are some images.

This is me actually playing the guitar for a former mariachi guitarist at an old folks home

Great pictures, Benjamin!
Is your church going to partner with churches there?

I love these pictures. They are very inspiring. I'd love to hear more about your trip as well. And (not related to your mission trip) I was watching a movie with Mathew McConaughey the other day and could not believe the similarities.

Yes, D, we do want to partner with churches there. We want to have a partnership there, as well as Indonesia. It is just more accessible in Mexico.

Melissa - are you saying that I look like Matthew McConaughey or that he was in a movie where he was passing out water at a dump? Or am I just missing the point. You know he lives in Austin, right?

Are you evoking a response from me. Fine Benjamin- yes- you're totally cute okay (In a M.M. way). And, by the way, Denise and I are discussing right now that you are like him in both personality and looks- the swagger, the half-cocked smile, the mischevious sense of humor, and we can even see you with a Texan accent. But your way better- because your my friend.

Yes, I've already had a chat with Benjamin about that little hand olding incident on the dumb...

With all the love for Matt McConaughey in Austin... it must be known that Ben completely blows him out of the water in every aspect possible. I know you concur.
