I’ve been skipping out about writing about very significant differences. I feel like once you say something once, there’s no reason to repeat yourself, but I think I need to.

Another Day, Another Blessing

​Last night was a rough night. Everybody that stayed in the hotel ended up coming back to the house because there was problems. The water wasn’t running and lizards were falling from the ceiling. I understand that’s stressful, but think about it. 32 of us rode to Cavaillon together in three separate cars. Also, people live here, so finding places for everybody to sleep was rough. Betty and I went to Reg’s cousin’s house and left to commotion. On top of there being 1,000 people in the house, the generator would not turn on so there was no power. My phone and camera have been dead for 24 hours now.

The Medical ClinicS

​The clinic went well yesterday, in my opinion. It started off a little slow, but then things picked up. We got some order and things flowed well. Anybody who sought medical help came in and took a number. They had a seat, and waited for their blood pressure to be taken by a doctor. Somebody went around and took temperatures and pulses as they waited. Each person’s information was recorded on their number card. After blood

pressure, there were two doctors to speak to that would gather information and prescribe medications. There was an oxygen tank available that some people needed, and my favorite part, reading glasses. It was amazing to watch people try on glasses who really needed them and attempt to read passages in a book. “No, I cannot see,” or “No, these do not work,” were sad things to hear, but eventually, everybody said “Yes, I can see! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”

The past couple of days have been very busy. We are preparing for Reg’s brother to come from Philadelphia. He is bringing his family and a missionary team with him. To get ready for his arrival, we have been cleaning the guest house and the main house, and also, painting. We have brought up tables to accommodate 10 extra people per meal and are still doing the other work as well.
 
When the team gets here, we will be preparing to run a medical clinic here in Carrefour, and then we will travel back to Cavaillon to host a medical clinic for the community there. Johanne And I prepared bags of school supplies for every student that attended the vacation Bible school classes. There are about 130 students there in all and each one will receive a stack of notebooks, a box of pens, pencils, and crayons, a sharpener, a ruler and an eraser. I believe that is to last them through the school year. Although it was a lot of work and several trips to the store to get enough supplies for every bag, it is well worth it. The church here should be very proud of the funds that they raised to support these children.

Trip to Cavaillon, Haiti

The past two days have been pretty exciting, but very different. We took a three hour trip to Les Cayes and Cavaillon where Pastor has land and another church. They are currently undergoing a 20 day vacation Bible school and feeding program for the children here. Light for Living International Ministries is really doing a lot to build up communities all over Haiti. Haitian children are so much fun, but I’ll get to that.

PSA: First things first, I am writing every day but cannot post every day as much as I would like to. I will not be able to get on social media and say something every day, but I will do what I can, when I can. I promised photo and video, so that will happen when it is possible to do so. So please, check back from time to time. Subscribe. Journey with me! Now, let's get started! Oh, oh, and all the pictures and videos do not go along exactly with what I am writing. I can take videos more easily than I can post updates. We all have to deal with it.

Haiti Welcomes Me!

​I have traveled to Haiti one time prior to this six month stay. It was in September of 2017 and it was only a 10 day visit. I have decided to come and live from July until the end of the year. In that time, I will be teaching ESOL classes and working with a number of adults, children and families in many capacities, but I will be adapting and embracing a culture that is far different than my own. I, in no way, believe that I am an expert on Haiti. I’ve done some research, and yes, I know some facts, but that is it. In the next six months, I will become well rounded and well versed in the language, the country, the people, etc. I will do some traveling and explore the many wonders of Ayiti and will gain a better understanding of how things work here. When American people think of Haiti, they think of a desolate third world country that is to be feared. However, I know that it is so much more than that.
