Chile and Global Peace

As reported recently by our fellow teammate, Deanna, our team recently decided to shoot for next June for our next journey into the beautiful country of Chile. This will only be a "survey trip", research gathering in preparation for our move that will begin just a year and a half later.

It is exciting to have made this unified decision about the timing of this important trip. Together we will be surveying more extensively the physical and spiritual characteristics of Concepcion and the nearby cities. Hopefully with the research we will gather then we can strategize more intelligently, leaning heavily on the Spirit for lots of guidance along the way.

The other day I stumbled on these interesting findings. I thought some of you readers would take special interest in this since you are either, currently living abroad, wanting to eventually, or do/will have children living abroad (neither Ellen or I currently have children living abroad).

Thanks Vision of Humanity for composing this very interesting list ranking the worlds' countries by their peacefulness.

#1 Iceland
#5 Japan
#12 Switzerland
#19 Chile
#34 Costa Rica
#56 Argentina
#90 Brasil
#97 United States
#100 Ecuador
#113 Philippines
#140 Iraq

I am proud of our dear Chile for coming in 19th as the most peaceful of all the Central and South American countries. Mom and Dad, I am terrified by the fact that you are even considering the thought of continuing to live in the United States.
