Grace- Today I gave my testimony to all of the MPCA Haitian student leaders. After I spoke, they all got in a circle to pray over me. Very emotional and touching. Miss and love you Mom, Dad, Grant and Storm. :) Oh by the way the Canadians think I have a Southern accent, not sure why lol.
Kennah (duck)- Thanks mom for naming me duck. My name means duck in Creole. All the Haitians quack at me every time they see me. Josh is currently hanging a lizard from his finger. This is definitely a very fun group and we laugh constantly about everything. Also, I have not won a single game of Uno yet. Miss you mom and dad. See you soon!
Addison - Thanks mom for not naming me duck. This trip has been amazing and I am loving every minute of it! Except the cockroaches. Grace, Kennah, Ben, Josh, and I spoke for the integrity lesson to the MPCA Haitian student leaders today. My first time speaking to a big group through an interpreter. Shout out to Mom, AJ, and Aleah. Loving and missing you!!!
Ben - Today at MPCA, I got my hair forcefully braided by several Haitian girls and the got beat bad by several Haitian guys in soccer. I can't say I'm exactly built for the heat, but meeting the people and experiencing the culture has made up for it. While my French is sub-par at best, it has been fun to practice and attempt to communicate with the Haitians in their language. Shout out to my bed and AC because I miss them (also my family).
Andy - This week has been amazing. God is certainly at work. It has been neat to see the kids come out of their shell and really grow in confidence and faith. I have really began to fall in love with the place my wife fell in love with many years ago. Love you all Amy, AJ & Aleah - see you soon.
Josh~ Hey y'all i'm not kidnapped, that probably wouldn't be good. The trip has been amazing so far, we have built solid relationships among the group and with the Haitian people. The group is very fun and we spend most of our time laughing. Spending time with the Haitian people, especially the youth has been very inspiring; their passion for Christ and community has been very eye opening. I sincerely look forward to the rest of the trip.
Darren~ The group has been doing great this past week. You should all be so proud of your sons and daughters. They've been working hard and giving their best at everything they do. To quote Andy above, "God is certainly at work." I couldn't agree more! Your prayers have definitely been felt by the entire group. Love you Megan and Mia!
