Hi Friends and Family! Over the last few years I have been posting updates to share what the Lord has been doing in my life personally. My prayer for this blog is that you may be built up and encouraged in the Lord, and that these updates may bring you to deeper intimacy and intercession! May we grow to see that He is alive and active, and intimately involved in our lives! He is jealous for us! Be blessed as your grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord and how passionate He is about you!

Haiti Day 5
This day we went into the market to get an idea of how shopping is like. One of our translators Dawald is getting married soon so we each put our money together to buy him a goat. After the market we hiked through the cornfield to go see the water project they people had been building and Tracy and Elise decided they wanted to get baptized while in Haiti! :) When we got back from the market we were supposed to go out and do food distributions and projects but it rained again, so we joined Kristy's English class and later went to Zuel's house to pray over his house and his family. Some people went out and did projects working on laying cement floors, others organized for VBS and others painted the new chairs in the church. At night we had devotions and more in our group got to share their testimonies and we went inside and read and journaled together around the table and we each did individual reading and devotions. I think this was my favorite night of the whole trip just everyone sitting together at the dinner table and sharing and encouraging each other with verses and singing together. Each night we would climb into our beds and check our nets to make sure no trantulas got inside during the day and then pass out until the morning. I think this night the boys woke up hearing voodoo drums and spent the night in spiritual battle on their knees praying for the witchdoctors who are still blind to the truth. I have to admit though, we had one prayer warrior of a leader and such a great influence to us all!
