July 20, 2011 – Haiti Mission Trip

[nggallery id=12]

Praise God from whom all blessing flow! I had a really good nights sleep, with God all things are possible! Most know that a good night’s sleep in Haiti is hard to come by. The only thing that we have planned today is to exchange some money (drug deal style) and go to Harry’s revival tonight.

Harry picked us up around 8:30 or so and we met the money dude at the restaurant to make the exchange. Once the deal went down, we went by Harry’s property to show Curt and Bob the vision that Harry has for a house. God has laid this on my heart and I know we will eventually find a way to raise the money to turn this vision into a reality. Harry is such a beautiful patient man. We picked up Harry’s wife and went back to the restaurant and had a great meal of fried turkey, plantains, macaroni, rice and sauce. More food than we could eat and it only cost five dollars per plate including a drink. With full bellies we took off to Harry’s church where we stayed the rest of the day. We did stop and buy eight bags of rice for Harry’s church.

It is always a joy for me to introduce people to places that are dear to me and Harry’s church and property are two of those places. Tomorrow we will go to Peligre another one of those places. We hung out in the heat at the church where Bob would eventually lead in worship, I would preach and Curt would take pictures. It was a beautiful service as always and I was stoked to be able to speak from Harry’s pulpit. After the service we got back to the guest house where Joe and Kelly had prepared a great meal that included my favorite Haitian dish picklees. All three of us were about maxed out, after eating Curt and I took count of our goudes. I then headed off to bed for what I hoped would be another good night.
