About 5 years ago after graduating high school I went to Argentina.  It was for a mission trip with my church.  I tell you what it was truly amazing to see life over there versus here.  It was a very long ten days because my husband proposed the night before I was due to leave so I wanted nothing more than to get back home to him.  But to see how grateful they were over there just to hear of the love of Jesus Christ just blessed me so much.  Not to mention that the food over there is absolutely amazing as well.  The pastries are to die for : )

Jun. 18, 2008 at 11:22 AM That is wonderful that you were able to go on a mission's trip..... I would really love to go on one to help children. It brings tears to my eyes to see how some of those children have to live. My sister went on several missions trips and really grew alot.  That is wonderful that they had such a love for Jesus! I can't imagine my life without him!

Jun. 24, 2008 at 2:37 PM I was in Buenos Ares.  From what we were told it was a pretty bad section.  All of the females were told to turn our rings around so that they couldn't see the stones and things because they were living in such poverty that anything they could get the hands on they tried.  Your brother is doing such a wonderful thing!  I will be praying for him over there-
