Hola amigos y familia! As of September 2007, we will be spending one year serving in Quito, Ecuador. We will be working alongside our missionary friends, Steve & Micki Herrmann, founders of the nonprofit Christian organization, Workers in the Harvest. We'll be assisting them with running soup kitchens, hosting short term mission teams, and caring for the local children. We are excited to share with you what God is doing during our time in Ecuador. Thanks for all of your support!!

The Colors of Quechua
Here are some photos of the Quechua people, the indigenous people of Ecuador. We just love their bright, bold colors and the distinctive way the women and children dress.

"When you stop seeing beauty, you start growing old. The lines on your face are a map to your soul. When you stop taking chances, you stay where you sit. You won't live any longer, but it'll feel like it." -Bono (U2)
We met as camp counselors in NH and have been married for 7 great years! We lived in historic Charleston, SC for 4 years before moving to the deserts of Scottsdale, AZ in 2005. Our next city of choice is Quito, Ecuador!
