A few pictures

Hello to all,

I thought I'd add a few photos here to let you see what Haiti is now looking like over a month after the storms have passed. It's so sad. These photos were taken by Haitians who went down for two different missions. The people who went were so saddened by what is still unlivable conditions. I'll explain what some of these are....

If you look close at this first picture, you can see the man evidently dug out the dishes for their home. The woman is washing them in that filthy water. Next to him, the dirty ones, next to her, the "clean" ones.
This next photo is amazing. That is a container turned upside down on that wall. That had to be HUGE force to do that!! Also note, the gates are standing, but the wall is about gone.
Now remember this is over a month AFTER the storms had finished with their destruction. This WAS a road...now a river with vehicles piled up.
You can see the path of destruction in this one...nothing left at all.
This WAS the only road to the north...simply gone.
You can see the need to pray is still very evident. The people will be a LONG time trying to rebuild what they lost, if they ever can. We praise God for the help we have received to help those we can. Some in Gonaives, some who are trying to relocate and find a new life.

Today (Sunday) we had a very good service in English Bible Fellowship. Our speaker was Pastor Saint Ange Monestime. He is a dynamic Haitian pastor who shares his heart in his messages. He used 1 Peter 5:5-7. His two points were to develop an attitude of humility and develop an attitude of trust and faith. He expounded on these very clearly and it was a great encouragement for everyone. And through it all, he stressed we can count on a caring God.

One upscale thing that has happened. We checked our empty LP tanks and found one full. I think the Lord must have done that...we didn't have one. But we sure are praising God for it being there. Isn't He Good???

Well, time to shut down the generator and get some rest. You all have a super great week. spend some of it serving the Lord, okay?
