Another great day

We have another great team working here. First they did a fantastic job of putting up a roof in a day and a half. Actually only 8 hours of work to complete it. Then they turned to working at the dorm. Believe me, we are really getting "up town" with the dorm now. Our watchman's room (which he only used for storage), is now holding our chest freezer, a washing machine and it has a light in it, too. It's become a great storage place for water bottles, pop bottles and all the cleaning supplies. They also put a ceiling in it. To top off that, they added hot water for showers...this is something a LOT of teams will enjoy. And the gals did some awesome work of arranging things there at the dorm, painting the closets, and a whole lot more. Some of the fellows and gals painted the last two outside walls of the dorm. They all did an afternoon of evangelizing. And there is so much more, but my mind in on hold right now. You get the idea...they are awesome.
We've had two great weeks of people, for sure. And through all of this I wasn't a lot of help. I came down with something. Doc has me on meds, said it might be close to pneumonia. So, I'm laying low.

This team leaves on Tuesday, and I'm going out with them to get some work done on these old bones. I should be back and going strong after a few adjustments. While I am in Florida, MFI is having their banquet. I'll get to go to that this year.

On Wednesday, November 12, we will be celebrating our 25th anniversary in Haiti. At times it doesn't seem we've been here that long, at others, it seems longer. But we are where the Lord put us and we will celebrate in His leading.

We ask that you keep our son and daughter-in-law in prayer. The adoption is STILL not moving. Not really sure what the hold up is, but we are praying that somehow, someway, something starts to work out right for this whole thing.

We've had a lot of rain again. More than we need. And it has kept Don from getting out to some of the more remote places he wants to take food. It's been a blessing to hear how the help we have given to those in Gonaives is progressing. All they needed was some encouragement and some way to get the work started. God has used SO MANY wonderful people to help these people. We simply can't say thank you enough for all the help given.

Well, it's Sunday, and we have to get ready to go to English church soon. We keep praying God's word will go out in force in this nation and that people will turn to Him for guidance and help. Reaching out to Jesus and letting Him become their source of life is what we are praying for.

Till next time...God bless and have a Christ centered week.
