A couple of years ago, our oldest son, Obi-wan, went on mission trips to Baja, Mexico and Honduras. 
They were amazing experiences for him and we could tell he was a changed young man each time he returned. 
He had grown closer to God as he met the practical needs of the people who lived in these villages. 
He grew stronger in his faith and gained confidence in his God-given gifts. He was praised for his servent-leadership skills as he lead one of the mission groups in building a ramp for a new hospital. 
He was also lifted up and praised for his compassion and encouraging spirit not only toward those they came to help but also towards his team members.

All those years invested in training up a child in the way he should go.... affirmed when we hear about the fruit of the Holy Spirit in him! Praise God! We are so blessed to have him as a son!!! )
Doesn't this say it all.... with God we have "Limitless Potential"!!! This was his mission team's motto. Couldn't we all use a good motto like this one?! :)
He took some amazing photos on his trip. (too many to post here but I have added a few)
The beauty of the pictures inspires us to go visit this gorgeous region of the world!!
