Day1

As a team we talked about flexibility before we left. Little did we know What lie ahead. Know before I start we are safe and well. We were driving at a good clip toward les cayes and we came to a road that was covered by a river. Before we really knew what was happening our driver was going for it. Our van became stuck in the rushing water. We vacated quickly carrying what we could. Several of us gathered to pray while the others waded back in to get more bags. The prayer on the embankment was that the van would get out, we would somehow find shelter and that there would be no more rain. In no time a large truck was pulling out our van, an English speaking Haitian woman who had seen our group in Miami pulled up and had us follow her walking distance to her home, church, school compound. Marie is wonderful and had just been to the states to raise awareness about her ministry. We slept here because of their unbelievable hospitality! We walked down to the beach this morning to gather and pray that we would see what excitement Godp would have for us today! We're now waiting for our new van and are being treated to coconut. We're marvelling at his provision. It's always perfect and we're going with it!
