Back to the Meximize trip

I’m sitting here listen to Nathanael work on his Spanish.  It’s really something to hear!  He actually tries to say it like it sounds, not like he thinks it should sound like adults do. 😉

As many of you know, Shari and I were in Mexico in July.  I went first with a team from Lansing Avenue Baptist Chapel, and when the team left, Shari joined me.

Anyway, the team was called the Meximize Team, and when they got back the team leader put up a few pages about the trip.  Pardon me, but I don’t think I ever pointed it out to you!  This is not because I didn’t like it, but because that site was a work in progress and so was this site, and we weren’t sure what was going to end up where.

The site includes a number of photos from the trip (like 200 or something), a video summary of the trip (which is well done), and related links.  There’s even a link there to Pan de Vida, the orphanage we were at.

But, perhaps best of all, there are 5 journal entries.  Now each member of the team was asked to write daily in a journal.  So these pages represent little glimpses into individual days of the trip from 5 team members (myself included).  I think this is really cool, and if you’re ever taking a short term team this might be a great way to talk about the trip on the web.

[oops – sorry, the Meximize site is no longer available!]
