big day ahead

for your prayers!

The group and the students of Emmaus had a blast yesterday evening during an English Conversation Night.  This is always so much fun for teams and for the students, talking and learning about each others lives, cultures, beliefs, churches, families, etc.  I had a hard time getting it wrapped up before 8 pm!  While we frequently try to share with you and with churches we visit what life and the perspective is in Haiti, it is SO much better hearing it for yourself!

Today Sharptown was back to tiling, and Thursday and Friday will finish off the second story of the men's dorm and do a major sidewalk dig/pour.

Tomorrow, however, is the day the Saccanville and Konpech communities are talking about.  Tomorrow, alongside of Bethesda Clinic's Dr. Rodney, over 20 students and 11 team members will be doing a mobile medical clinic in the church across the street.  Team members will be helping out with registration, consultations and running the pharmacy, while students will be translating, and taking turns manning the "evangelization station."

As EBS has previously done alongside of other medical clinics, four or five students at a time will sit with every single patient seen before they receive their medications and share the Gospel, pray, listen...minister.

This will give the community a chance to life-on-life receive medical care AND to hear His Good News, and it will give the team and students a chance to do ministry in Haiti together and to grow in relationship with hundreds of members of the community.

I mean, beat that!  It is bound to be a really fun, exciting, heart-wrenching, life-changing, transforming day...hopefully for hundreds!  Thank you for your prayers...

Matt has meetings all day, and I have class and Lily, so...we'll be there as much as we can for photos and stories...  Thank you to the many of you who helped raise the funds for the Sharptown group to do this medical clinic!
