Ecuador!!!

Hey! I'm back from a great week in Ecuador for an International Teams' missionary conference!

We stayed in a great retreat center in the mountains of Ecuador, and enjoyed lots of time to reconnect and get to know other missionaries serving in United States, Honduras, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Argentina!

I shared a room with my friend Michelle, who serves in Honduras (hadn't seen her in over TWO YEARS!), and it was wonderful to reconnect with her again! We had some amazing Bible teaching times, and heard reports from all the ministries represented. We also got to do a little tourism around Quito and the mountains outside the city!

I'll just post a few pictures here, you can CLICK HERE FOR MORE PHOTOS!

We went to visit a HUGE rose farm near the conference center:

AND, we went to "the center of the earth" - the equator line!

As you can see, we ate TONS of great food:

And we were spoiled with the beautiful surroundings of the conference center!
