Sunday Night


Well things have finally slowed down. I finally was able to post Saturday’s update. Sharon called me right away to let me know I had said the Haitian patty had heroin, not heron in it. I couldn’t blame that one on the keyboard. I have the best Spell Checker around.

Chuck, Pat, and I believe Amanda went to Sunday school. Chuck to speak to the adults about what it took to get ready to put on the VBS; I believe Amanda taught the little ones. The rest of us went over after we checked out and packed the vans. Several of the kids who were at the VBS came today and Pastor Mark gave a Bible to each one who were saved during the week. There were over 60 people there today. The place was packed. The teens went aside for their own lesson when Pastor Mark was ready to preach. Today’s service was not in English.

After the service, we all had lunch at the church. I really believe I should stay away from Haitian food or I will be twice as big as I am. Afterwards there were many goodbyes. The group had made many friends and they will be missed. We loaded up the van and headed to the beach for our last night here. Then the beach came out to meet us. Rainstorms in Florida can be rather intense. In some spots, the water was up to the running board. Several of those small, very expensive cars found out you cannot race on water.

We got to the hotel and finally all the rooms were ready. Some of us had to wait 45 minutes for our room to be ready. We have a rather nice view out our window. Hopefully everyone will get plenty of rest tonight. I really doubt that they will. The Jacobsen’s were invited to stay at the Hotel with us. A group of us walked down to Bubba Gump’s to eat. I have never eaten there before.

This will probably be the last post until we get home. Please continue to pray for us as we make our way to the airport. Pray that there will be no hiccups along the way. Several of the group have colds. Pray that God give healing and comfort as we fly.

We miss our loved ones and will be home soon. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and read the updates. I am greatly humbled to have had this opportunity. Thank you for your prayers and comments. The comments made were very important to us. By them, we knew that you were watching and praying for us. Goodbye for now, God bless, and we will see you tomorrow. (Link to Pictures)
