About Us

My photo
We make intentional lifestyle choices to use the abundance God has given us here in the U.S., so that we can give to those less fortunate than us in 3rd world countries. We want others to see the difference as Jesus, not us. We are all sinners in need of a savior. We are NOTHING without Jesus! Everything we have comes from Him and it is such a blessing to share it!

Walk down to the fishing village

Hiking through the sugar cane and pineapple gardens to get to the village down on the beach (you can see it from the top of the camp site).
Chiquita Lady....

Can you read Jonas' mind.....?
You guessed it!

The village school...
(The 2 teachers on our team, Joey & Vicki)

Doing laundry...
They fish at night with lanterns to catch millions of these little fish (like sardines)...
Then lay them out on the rocks to dry in the sun, then take them to market.
This lady's full time job is to watch the fish all day, turning them with her broom (above) and chasing birds away. 
They also catch fish like Talapia, that the camp will buy from them to have fresh fish (and support local business)...
Ally & Anissa carried these all the way up the hill one day for dinner! YUM!!!


We got to see alot of the kids that had come to our outreach day!

All the village kids waved & watched us go...
*lump in the throat*
