check out this good lookin' guy! my pop is headed south of the border this week. he joined the local church group for a mission trip to chiapas, mexico. i think they are going to build a church, or something selfless like that. my dad is pretty good at the church building skills: last week he helped rebuild my hometown church, which was destroyed last fall in a tornado. this week he takes his skills to our southerly neighbor.
his humanitarian resume thus far:
- red cross meal kitchen in louisiana after katrina
- red cross chain(saw) gang to help clean up after tornadoes
- rebuilding bethlehem baptist church in crosstown, mo
- building una iglesias en mexico
i'm sure i missed a few things, but that's a start. he and my mom have decided that retirement is better spent traveling the country, playing with grandkids, and volunteering to help others.
um yea, and what have you done lately to help someone out?
