Big Boats, Little Boats, Rusty Boats...

Must stem from years working in a boat yard, seems as if everywhere we go Adam is snapping pictures of boats.

There's another one...

Adam's Trip To Tonga

At the beginning of August Adam got to spend two weeks in Tonga, a small island in the south pacific. He joined up with a Work & Witness team from our home church, NewportNaz, to work on staff housing for the Mango Tree Respite Center.

From a crazy "commercial" fishing trip to amazing Tongan style worship, he had quite the blessed time. They were able to get the building about 60% completed, from concrete slab to rafters. Adam enjoyed being able to visit and catch up with our friends and mentors. They all worked hard and once again made NewportNaz proud, as you can see in the pictures below! 

Adam has been blessed this summer to have one of the MK High Schoolers from here on station, Josiah Radcliffe, as his right hand man on the job site. He was a big help in getting the 3 doctors houses to where they are today. Josiah was able to go to Tonga with Adam. I was very thankful Adam had a travel buddy and I know they both had an amazing experience.
