turns out, people actually scour the web for photos to use in their published works…and sometimes, they find your work and want to use it.

I’ve had the honor of serving in Jamaica with some incredible people from all over the place. A lot of good has been done, countless lives have been changed and some amazing friendships have been formed. Since [pretty much] everyone is on Facebook, I want to attempt to reach out to all whom I’ve had the honor of serving with in Jamaica though that medium.

Hendersonville Church of Christ Mission Trip: Spanish Town Jamaica. It’s impossible to convey via this medium the feeling we all have about our experiences. Communicating this to each of you now and when we return will be our most trying task.

as you guys know, i actively participate in, and lead others on, mission teams to Jamaica. in fact, i just returned from one of these trips sunday morning at 3am.
i’ve been responsible for planning, funding and leading 11 teams to Jamaica – taking full responsibility for the well being of more than 250 lives in a foreign land. in no way am i seeking to shine a light on what i’ve been blessed to have the opportunity to do for any personal glory, i tell you this to ask for …

please keep my friends and family in jamaica in your prayers. they’ve had a tough go at it over the last 24hrs. my friend, leslie goode, said “It was the roughest I can remember in all of my lifetime.” he’s been through Gilbert, Ivan and all others… so that’s saying something.
i talked with goode, mike and others several times yesterday until the phone went out. goode called me this morning – i took the above quote from that.
email me if you want details as i receive them…

i am very, very blessed to have the opportunity to serve often in Jamaica. this year has been an exceptionally awesome one, as i’l be travelling back down soon. plans are underway for both groups and things are going as well as you can expect – “flexibility” is both a running joke and an absolute must. had a few surprises yesterday on one of my many calls to the island… but everything is cool.
my buddy jeremy is a HUGE example for me and i’m thankful to call him my …

my good friend brian, and his wife, just took a trip out to seattle… check out their adventures. i’ve been out there twice and haven’t done half of what they did!

lindsay and i made a journey up to New York City last weekend – it was incredible. I’d been before, but had forgotten how overwhelming it is… pictures in the gallery…

most of you know, i love jamaica – specifically, my friends in jamaica. still going through “not in jamaica anymore” withdrawl… trying not to fall back into the same ‘ol routine i’ve found myself in so many times before. as i do in jamaica, i want to truely live life to the fullest everyday. i get distracted sometimes, guess cube-world has a way of getting me down at times.
been down twice in the past 5 months, would like to be there now. to my friends in jamaica, and as encouragment …

just got back from an amazing weekend out in east tennessee with the family. we hadn’t all got to sneak out in a long time and man, was it a great weekend or what! i can’t believe how much pigeon forge has changed (for the better) in the last few years. i guess it’s been 3 or 4 years since my last venture into that area and i look forward to heading back up there again soon.
highlights:
