What I Loved in Jamaica: The Locals

The Jamaican people we met were amazing. They were content with what little they had, teaching me so much about joy. Of course, there are stories to tell about each one of them, but no story, no words can convey what God did in my heart through these beautiful people.

Nate, In the beginning of the mission video, there is a photo of Cleoneese squatting on the stone path. Is that your photo? I'd like to copy that and use it in the future. Do you know how I can do that?
I'm really enjoying all the photo's and stories. It's a lot to process though.....

Nate, I tried to embed your video for my blog, but it tells me it no longer exists????? Can ya help me out here?

Milah, yes. I took all the pictures in that particular video. That is actually one of my favorite pictures from the whole trip. Somehow it captures the beauty, hope, sadness, etc. all at once. It truly was an unexpected blessing when I was flipping through my photos and saw how it turned out. I can e-mail it to you as an attachment.

Sue, hit play on the video. If you keep the cursor over the player, options should appear in the right upper corner. Just copy and paste the embedding code into the body of a post and it should work. Maybe vimeo was down for a while when you tried. It seems to be working now though. Good luck ;o)
