In Haiti, Safe and Sound

After a few minor delays in travelling, I arrived in Haiti safe and sound on Friday at around 1:30pm. We got home to the mission house around 5:00pm and enjoyed electricity until about lunch time on Saturday, when it disapeared until around 3:00pm today. It's really hot here... thirty-one degrees in my bedroom, which is much, much cooler than outside in the sun!

Church was really good today. I absolutely love worshipping with the Haitian believers. There's really no way to describe it, but they really love the Lord and they are so musical... it's as though the whole congregation moves as one! I think I'm going to learn a lot from these people, while I'm here!

School registration is tomorrow and I'll begin teaching classes on Tuesday. I have two beginner's classes, a pre-intermediate class, an intermediate class and an advanced class. I'm feeling fairly aprehensive about all this, so I'd appreciate all your prayers. I have 63 students registered so far, and that could go up with registration tomorrow. This is definitely a task bigger than myself and so I'm asking and trusting God to take over and bring everything together. I"d appreciate your prayers for that too!

Glad you made it Stace!

I will definitely be praying for you about your classes; the kids, and the amount of kids.

That is crazy how the electricity just cuts out for a few days and then comes back on. We really have no clue overhere in the west. I remember our big east/north american black out for a few days, and it threw our society into temporary economic choas. The Haitians must have laughed at us.

I'm glad you're enjoying things at church...that's where you will find rest and encouragement.

Blessings,

Praying for you and knowing the inner excitement you get when you know that God is about to do something great using your meager abilities. You will be amazed.
