I was so tired from not having slept nearly at all on Friday night. I had packed, done laundry and finished my last minute shopping with little time left to sleep before time to meet up with the team at 3 a.m. Saturday March 12 Once we got to school to ride the bus out to the airport, my tired eyes weren’t even a concern because I was so excited to be with my team, ready to go for the week. We prayed together over our trip and all of the other groups leaving from Lipscomb to serve God’s grand kingdom in the world. After several hours in airports and on airplanes, we arrived at the Casa Mirage where the girls from the team stayed for the week. I was incredibly excited to get to Cozumel. Being back there after a year was such an incredible feeling; I loved smelling the smells and feeling the breeze that I hadn’t felt since last spring break. Saturday night, we went to the campus of Ciudad de Ángeles and served dinner and smores to the “angels” and the staff there. I was pretty nervous because I didn’t know if any of the kids would remember me from last year. I don’t know why I worried so much. Even though some of them didn’t recognize me at first, the girl that my family sponsors was waiting to greet me with a hug. I also met a boy who had just moved to Ciudad last year. It is amazing to see how God is blessing Ciudad de Ángeles daily. Last year, 8 new angels...

From Nashville, Tenn., to San Quintin, Baja California Norte, Mexico in 19 hours. That might have been the longest day of my life, but where we arrived and the week we experienced made the end well worth the means. This is the fourth time I have gone with Lipscomb on a spring break mission trip to San Quintin, a small town about six hours south of San Diego, Calif. Our trip works with the non-profit called Baja Missions, which has started more than ten churchs on the Baja peninsula. To say this year’s trip started off with a bang would be an understatement. We woke up on our first morning to a tsunami warning, but that didn’t stop us from immediately starting to work with the Iglesia de Cristo en San Quintin. There are three main components to our trip: building a house for a family, visiting the homes of members of the church, and Vacation Bible School (VBS) classes for men, women, teens, and kids. The house visits continue to be the most meaningful part of this mission trip for me. The church members we visit always have huge smiles on their faces when we come to their homes to spend time with them and pray for their families. They are always so inviting and so appreciative of the little amount of time and supplies we give to them. It is there, in their homes, that many long-lasting relationships have been formed with the church members. On Sunday, there was a soccer game between the Mexicans and the Americans. Unfortunately we Americans lost, but it was so much fun...
