I thought I'd start out with some pictures for you. This first one is of a plant we have in our yard. The huge leaves look like someone took a paint brush to it. We had some leaves that were about a foot and a half wide. I really liked them and our yardman went and found more. The flower almost looks like a jack-in-the-pulpit. the other greenery is a fine like plant that we have on top of our wall on the porch. These in the picture had fallen down and took root.
Have a super, God blessed, God directed, God inspired day!!!
We have been having some really heavy rains at night. Sunshine during the daytime. Combining the two, you have humidity. Temperatures in the upper 80's which we can handle, but the the humidity is wearing on eveyrone. And then come the Wisconsin state birds, MOSQUITOES. Not sure why we have to have them here in Haiti, too, but we sure do.
We are still fighting our internet problems. Have found a short way to get on, but it is SO slow compared to what we are used to. The paises to God in it, is that I CAN get on, when it works. But it's a blessing, too. Slow is better than none. But it is a prayer concern for us. Trying to do MFI work, Embassy work, and general letters is very challenging. So please keep it all in prayer.
I really am so pleased to be able to write, but we have been spoiled with such good internet to this point. It reallly isn't the internet that is the problem. It's our two computers. We need to go in and change some information....but I have no idea WHERE to go and WHAT to change. Being computer illiterate has it's drawbacks.
Anna came to stay for 2 months. She has been going out to Limbe and working at an orphanage there. She comes back here once in a while to visit. She is teaching English out there to the orphans, and of course, being loved on and loving the kids, too.
We went to a meeting with the heads of the airport here in Cap and some fellows from Port au Prince. All airlines are invited to have a representative there. Not all come though. But it's a good thing. They share what is happening with the airport and how things are progressing. Then the airlines are allowed to make statements and ask questions. I praise God that at both of the meetings we've attended, Savnah has slept through almost all of it. This last one when she woke up, we left, so as not to disturb anyone. But they were almost finished anyway. I do appreciate the fact that they are including the airlines in things, and giving an ear to what we have to say.
Don has started hauling gravel for a pastor for building. He said probably 15 or more loads, since it's in an area where there is a lot of water problems. They buy land where they can afford it, then try to deal with the problems. Sad, but at least they have something to claim.
Remember to keep the Lord at the front and center of all you do and in all your dealings. Like everyone else, we have problems, but keeping Jesus front and center
gets us through each situation. He definitely IS our strength and shield. Until next time, blessings beyond mearure and love (of the Lord and for the Lord) unending.
