Hola!! Each day we
plan what we will do (at home & here too) & some days it goes as we
have planned, while other days we know that God has a different plan. We knew when we got picked up at the airport
on Wednesday that the plans we made were being modified to blend together with
what God had in place. Such an exciting adventure
to walk with Jesus!
We spent the last two days in the capitol city of Santo Domingo. On the way there (it was a four hour drive to
get thereJ)
we stopped at two public schools to tour & let the Haitian school board men
get a look at what the schools were like.
At the second school, we were able to be a part of a teacher inservice
and collaborate together (Americans, Dominicans, and Haitians). It was definitely a divine appointment. We stayed the night in a hotel & then had
an exciting day shopping in the market, seeing the historical sights, &
riding the subway. This was a special
treat for the Haitian men as most of them have never been to a big city or
ridden on a subway.
We returned back to Barahona to the MP school & had a
delicious meal of salad, rice, beans, & fish. After our meal, Nicole shared a devotion and
read from Matthew 14, when the little boy brought his 2 fish & 5 loaves of
bread to Jesus & Jesus multiplied his gift to feed the thousands. That is all He asks of us---to bring what
little we have to give & He will increase it for His glory & purpose.
We miss our families & pray all is well at home with
everyone. I want to wish my son Nathan,
a very happy 18th birthday today.
Hope you have had a great day
celebrating—I think you are wonderful!!
Thank you everyone for your prayers!
