Whirlwind, jam packed, 24/7...these are a
few phrases that would describe the past two weeks for us. I must admit I
am slightly overwhelmed at where to begin and what to say...let's just say A
LOT is going on here in our little Haiti life and we are thankful for this
journey. Here are a few highlights to get us back on track:
-We have just completed 2 back to back
weeks of hosting teams from the U.S. who came to serve with Baptist HaitiMission. 6 new homes have been built for families in the community over
the past 2 weeks. We are so thankful for the relationships we formed as
we worked alongside these teams and for the impact the Gospel is making
throughout Haiti.
-Yesterday was a great Saturday afternoon
for us. We did a whole lot of not too much, and it was very enjoyable.
I cut Trey's hair for him yesterday. Thank you YouTube for your help, I spent a good part of the morning watching video's on "How To Cut Men's Hair" and it all turned out pretty well if I do say so myself.
-After a busy few weeks, and preparing
for the start of another, we decided to spend a Sunday morning just the two of
us at home for worship. We joined Pastor Johnny Hunt and FBC Woodstock in
GA via the internet this morning. It is incredible that we can sit in our
house in Haiti and worship with our family in GA. Now...if only we can
figure out a way to get burgers from Canyons for our Sunday lunch, we would be
set!
-Last weekend my little sister Dalice
turned 20, and today my older brother Dempsey turns 26! I think it is
safe to say, our "little family" is quite grown up. My mom
still claims to be 35...my math skills aren't the best, but I can still see
something is not adding up.
-I have a new addiction, a website composed of Blogs by Missionaries all over the world! I love checking
in and hearing the honesty as well as receiving encouragement from these women.
I've even been blessed to stumble upon quite a few blogs from sisters
here in Haiti. What a small world this is becoming!
-Have a restful Sunday!
