Wednesday

All is well here in Haiti. We have been playing with the children every evening. Monday was the first any of them, including the staff, have seen water balloons. We taught them to toss them back and forth like a ball until they dropped them and they broke. They never did just throw them at each other and the innocence of that was very cool to see. They had a blast.
Yesterday we visited church members in their homes talked with them and shared our personal stories. We sang songs of faith and then prayed with them. Yesterday evening we had a fire and set around and sang songs. We made smores and that was a first for them too. Today we planted trees and laid a concrete floor for a widow from the church.

Awesome God Stuff--I am thinking alot of the concrete mixing for the floor now. Did alot of that in Jamaica. All that mixing for a solid foundation. Every ingredient has to be just right but yet so broken to work. It is us mixing with each other and for God's purpose to give us the solid foundation to do His work. Thank you for letting us journey with you.
