Yesterday was an adventure and what seemed like exercise in futility.
The people and country of Haiti have had alot of cash goods and personell poured int the country.
We have noticed that the expectation of many here is that rebuilding will be done for them. What is so great and amazing is what Haiti Arise is doing by showing and teaching people how to do it themselves. This empowers not only the student but any of the teachers.
It is also apparent that the Haitian people are very resilient, and can continue to do comerce in the face of strife.
God has come close to each of us as team members and streached us to a place that we may not return to. I am speaking about the same comfort we knew as people before going on a short term outreach.
Thank-you all for praying for us.
As I sit here typing (pick and peck) sticky because the humidity is close to 100%, I am reminded that we are all being watched over by an amazing loving Father.
May all of you reading this find encouragement in something around you in your life today.
c-ya
