Goodbye for now
WE HAVE BEEN SO BLESSED! Everything went so smooth on our flying day. Kurts and our family were all to the airport very early with lots of time to spare, imagine that:).
We were glad to see Shea at the airport to help us with our bags as it is always hectic...get your visas, find your bags and then haggle with the Haitians as to who will take your bags and then they make sure you pay them enough.
We were welcomed by the staff here and Tom and Laurie were over from the D.R. to stay with us our first couple days. So good to see everybody again.
Our first day was a little overwhelming, you just pretty much jump in here and figure things out for yourself. We do have a great staff here to work with and they have all been so kind and helpful. There are many things going on here. People coming and going all the time, (Haitians and other missionaries from different missions) many projects going. Today, we lost water, electric and propane; but we are back up and running now.
We have felt your prayers as God has been helping us through many things already that are beyond our normal abilities. The children have also been doing well and enjoying making new friends.
Please continue to pray for us as we continue thru the new adjustments and as we try to learn the language.
2 Thes. 3:1 "Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have free course, and be glorified, even as it is with you."
