Springtime Classics

Last night my church held a benefit concert. But this wasn't just any benefit concert. This was the Springtime Classics. A group of accomplished classical musicians donated their time and talent to raise support for the college group's upcoming mission trip to Haiti. The music was gorgeous.

Here you have before you photographic evidence that I can get up for sunrise. However, being awake and coherent at that hour is a completely different story. Just ask my family.

Ensenada. Mexico

Last month I had the opportunity to go down to a women’s shelter in Ensenada with a group from my church. The plans to put up a power pole/fix the roof were quickly changed when a storm rolled in and poured buckets of rain. (I’ve never seen so much mud in my life.) Instead we ended up playing with the kids and visiting with mothers. I had a blast taking some family portraits for the women. Here are just a few of my favorites.

Great is Your Faithfulness



I love this photo. I love the way the sun is shining, yet the rain is pouring. I even love how the clouds veil the top of Mt. San Jacinto. It reminds me that rain or shine God is still sovereign. Even when I have no idea where I'm heading, let alone how to get there, God is always faithful.

But this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope: The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. - Lamentations 3:21-23
