Ashley, age 19, daughter of Wendy (see below) Ash is a sophomore at Texas A&M. She has gone on quite a few mission trips in the past and works hard, praises loudly and loves passionately.
Wendy. Quite the jokester. Didn't quite get the tan she thought she would on the trip. Who is she kidding. She has never been tan, which Pastor Walter was kind enough to point out. This lady has wicked shoveling skills.
Grace, who served as our medical director and spirit raiser. She could always be found where the singing and laughter could be heard. She is a bright ray of sunshine everywhere she goes.
Randy, checking his twitter at lunch. (Not really, he was taking photos of Ashley on her phone) Randy is sweet and kind and has a dry, quiet wit that will catch you off guard. Nothing slowed this man down and he wins as the Cement Chipping Champion!
Jim. Thank goodness we had Jim. He was the one to point out a critical design flaw to the site foreman. The foreman was NOT happy about it, but by the end of the week he had warmed up to Jim and showed his appreciation. With some small modifications the ramp was saved. Jim is their HERO!
John proved himself as a leader in both physical and spiritual endeavors. His knowledge of scripture had us all seeking him out throughout the trip. This picture does not represent him very well, since he always had a huge grin on his face at the worksite. That is when he wasn't upside down in a hole...
And last, but certainly not least, Jean (center) This woman is a true gem. She gives and gives of her heart and soul, and even when she is pushed away, she continues to give of herself. She epitomizes the statement "Anyone is worth Everything". This is also a great picture of John, Jim and Randy with her.
The whole team at the end of the trip. What an amazing thing we experienced. We went to give and ended up receiving much much more.
