A "Shout Out" to my brothers and sisters at Central Presbyterian Church, Denver

As I mentioned in my previous posts, I hosted a Healing Waters International "Transformation Trip" in Guatemala the week after I finished the Wellshire youth mission trip.

The group on this trip was from Central Presbyterian Church in Denver. They were an amazing group and we spent a week working with one of the churches that hosts a Healing Waters project. For most of the week we were split into three teams. One team was doing some painting work at a "Missions House" that is run by the local church. One team was doing cinder block construction on a second story of a building that will serve as a storage area for the school. And one team was helping to put a roof on a house owned by a member of the church. The church member has been commissioned to start a church plant in his house, and the home church is helping him fix up his house to do that.

I didn't do any blog posts for the week because the Central Pres. team was taking care of that themselves. If you want to read about their trip, you can visit the church blog at:

One of the participants on the trip also did some personal blogging and you can follow that here:

While it was tough to be in Guatemala for two weeks without Jessica and Esther, the youth on our mission trip and the Central Pres. crew on the Transformation Trip kept me energized and on my toes. I really enjoyed leading the trip with them and getting to know each of them. They are an incredible group of people with incredible hearts for service! Thanks to my brothers and sisters from Central Pres!
