Romans 10: 14-15

But how are they to call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!"

Hey all.. has it already been over week since i've updated?? man, where does the time go. well, my brother has been in Quito 10 days and i've enjoyed every minute of it so far. we've spent a lot of time sight seeing around Quito, (which is interesting being that we both do not speak Spanish that well) watching plenty of soccer, and finding random things to pass our time with. there is a tournament going on now called the Copa Cup, which is a tournament between south america teams and the u.s. It's been fun watching the games with the nationals here. Imagine watching a soccer game with about 50-75 Graham michaels, and thats about what it is like...crazy (some of you might not get that, but those that do will laugh, go Kentucky!)

It's funny what two brothers will come up with to pass some time. having Luke here brings me back to my childhood, where you would just find random things in the house and make a toy out of it. Luke bought a little pelot gun the other day, and we had a shoot out in our kitchen...which im not proud to say that i got dominated at. then luke found some chalk outside and drew some boxes on the wall, and we played the soccer equivalent to "horse" or "pig" (or in our case "imb"), by trying to call your shot into one of the boxes. representing my company like a proud m should, i got revenge on the little guy..ha! anyways here are a few pics...


This is me at "el bosque" mall watching Ecuador lose to Chile


Finally getting my debit card to work!!


My brother and I cooked lunch last saturday. This was definitely a first for me...


The women in my family would be proud..


There is a ton of architecture like this in Quito that just makes you scratch your head... i thought my dad would get a kick out of this..
