See what we are up to

Welcome! We hope you enjoy this site and that it gives you a taste of what we are doing On Eleuthera Island. Eleuthera is one of the many Bahamian Islands and is located 255 miles east of Miami, FL.

We are working with Bahamas Methodist Habitat here on the Island. They are known for their caring hearts and desire to help those in need. We are glad to be here working with them, As we have updates and photos about our experiences, we will post them here.

As you enjoy our photos and updates, please pray for us and the people of Eleuthera. It is our greatest hope that above all else that Christ is made known to those we work with and in our own lives.

Just Got Back

Hello Spring Break Mission Team! I have set up this blog site to help keep you informed about our upcoming trip and eventually it will serve as a way for friends and family to see what we're up to and hopefully view pictures and video while we are actually on Eleuthera.

This past week I had the amazing opportunity to visit Eleuthera and I am so excited about what lies ahead for us. Eleuthera is a beautiful island with much need. Abraham McIntyre is the program director for Bahamas Methodist Habitat. Abraham said Eleuthera is just like Appalachia, only it has emerald waters instead of mountains. I think that is a great description. Jane Currin, youth director at Concord UMC, and I drove from one end of the island to the other and got a good feel for the people and geography. We are going to have a great time on Eleuthera, I promise and so does Abraham.

I will try to post regularly to keep you informed. You can choose to "follow" this blog and will get notifications when it is updated, or you can just check back when you have time.

Before I stop, I will leave you with a few photos to get you excited. As for you, please begin praying for our trip, that God will move in us and the people of Eleuthera even before we ever step foot on the plane to leave.
