We left our hotel early this morning bound for Zacatecaluca to visit another after school Bible program. This one meets in the morning because the children who attend go to the public school in the afternoon. Public schools in El Salvador have two sessions per day – morning and ...

Today we went to Santiago de Maria to visit another of the after school Bible clubs.  It took us over 2 hours to drive there because it’s quite a distance away from the city in a small town.   The after school Bible club started there a couple of years ago.  Today about 100 ...

Today was more of a free day for us.  The first thing we did was buy 280 gifts for the kids we will visit at after school Bible clubs in the next 2 days.  Then we went to Suchitoto, a tourist town with a lot of history – cobblestone streets, a huge church and a really nice, small ...

Today we toured the big Calvary Chapel facility in San Salvador.  It includes a church, high school, elementary school and is a center for training pastors, who lead churches throughout El Salvador, to start Bible clubs.  We had lunch and then went to San Martin to observe in its ...

The team got up early this morning to meet the bus at 6:45am.  We went to the church that feeds poor boys and a few girls and had the opportunity to help feed breakfast to these kids.   Next we divided into three groups, loaded into buses and went to three different neighborhoods ...

We arrived safely in El Salvador at 6:45am (Saturday) after flying all night.  We were met by the team from Potters Field Ministry and taken to our hotel where we checked in and had about an hour to get settled.  Then we jumped on a bus and headed for San Martin where the orphanage is ...

It's 5:30pm on Friday, January 8th and we're going to try again to leave for El Salvador.  Our plane is scheduled to leave in about 2 hours.  The team is excited and praying that this time we won't be grounded by fog.  If all goes well my next post will be from El ...

It's 10:35pm and fog has delayed our trip.  We can't land at LAX so we're on our way home.  We will try again tomorrow.  The team is a little disappointed but confident we will be bound for El Salvador 24 hours from now!

We're having a bit of a rough start.  It's 9:45pm and we should have boarded the plane an hour ago but fog in L.A. - where we catch a connecting flight to El Salvador - has prevented us from departing San Diego.  Spirits are high, but we are praying...we're anxious to ...

Blogging is new for me. I’ve never done it before but we thought it would be great to share with you the details of the mission trip to El Salvador I am embarking on with 12 people from Foothills Christian Church. We will visit the orphanage in San Martin, where our church helped build one ...
