Video Capability Added!

Well, now that I have discovered the beauty of videos, I don't think pictures will ever be the same. Hopefully I will be able to figure out how to post these videos directly into the blog rather than as page elements on the side. I hope to have videos once every few months so you have more to see than just text and pictures. Hope you enjoy!

Online Photo Album!

Blogger has recently added a way to link my photo albums to my online journal. On the links portion of the page to the right, you can click and access my photo album. I plan to keep this updated once on the field so you will be able to see some of the pictures I have taken. This will serve as another resource in addition to my newsletter to keep you informed of what I am doing in Venezuela! Right now, I just have a few trial photos in the album. When I get pictures from my Mexico trip I will update the album. Thanks for the continued prayers and support!

God Bless,
Matt Johnson

Another Great Trip!

Well, the trip to Juarez, Mexico was a huge success. We were able to build houses for two families as well as present them with some house warming gifts. I really enjoyed the opportunity to serve and brush up on my Spanish in the process. I will definitely post some pictures when I get them. Right now I am in Minnesota visiting with my future Venezuelan roommate. Well, he isn't Venezuelan, but I will be living with him when I head down there. I will update you all soon. I will also be sending out my 2006 end of the year report shortly as well. Thanks for all the continued prayers and support!
All the Glory to God,

Matt Johnson
