so much rain
We have had torrential downpours for the past several nights. We continue to be hit with how much things like rain and flooding really mess things up in places like Haiti. Impassible roads, flooded homes, stagnant water, floating garbage, mosquitos, colds and destroyed towns are all part of the toll, and the death count this week alone is up to 16 (known).
This is so devestating, especially in a country where so few people know the Lord. The attitude of the people feels so hopeless...hard hard lives just made harder. We are trying to remind ourselves that we are doing what we can, and doing what makes a lasting difference: sharing Christ and living as examples of Him!
Thank you for your continued prayers and for your living examples of Him through your prayers and various means of support!

Praying the rain will ease and give the Haitian people (and you two) a little break. Life is so fragile for them. May God use your sweet faces and warm hearts to bring light into their lives during this difficult time. Never forget how much you are loved and are being prayed for--take care and feel His arms holding you tight. Lori
