A view off the front porch.


I thought I would post a pic of the view off the front porch of the church. It truly was a beautiful area that we were in. The church was located about 2 blocks off the main road and was very close to what I would call the jungle. It's hard to explain how cool it was to see the church for the first time. We had traveled through some sad towns and villages. I saw mounds of trash piled up in many front yards where we might see toys piled up over here. It was refreshing to see the church and it's flower garden out front and to see the care that was taken to make the grounds around the church look so good. My first reaction was that this was a special place that the locals really cared about. (click the picture to enlarge and you may be able to make out the cross in the lower right of the picture)
