In Haiti from February 5 - 28, 2007
well i am in Haiti now. we are 1 hour ahead of CST. we rode in a really nice bus from the Dominican Republic, then it broke down so we had to switch buses... which was just a little less nicer. then once we crossed the boarder... it went really fast and they were supposed to check our luggages, but since we are missionaries, they told us that they were not going to check our luggages. and also everyone was able to get their visa's without any problems (thank God). :o)
as we were driving into Haiti, I noticed that there was an obvious difference in the Dominican Republic and in Haiti. Haiti not as clean, has less color (everything seems to be gray, whereas in the D.R. everyone is wearing bright colors), and there is obvious poverty. it is really humid here and they say that we are staying in the most beautiful place in Haiti... which is awesome. :o)
on Saturday we are going to the beach, then the next week we are going to a waterfall, and the next one we are going back to the beach. i am really enjoying my time on this outreach, but i really miss all of you. i am excited to come home, but i just don't want to forget all of the things that God has taught me and I also don't want to fall back into my old habits. (you can pray that i don't fall back into old habits - if you wish).
i hope that when i do come home that you will all be able to see that i am a different person and that i am different in a good way.
well, that is all that i am going to write for now. please continue to pray for our team as we are in this "gray" country. also pray against any attacks that the enemy (Satan) has on this country, our team, and anything else that you can think of.
thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
