MULTIPLY

We lost power last night just before I could post the blog. Sorry for the lack of communication.  We are currently in the Fort Lauderdale airport.  Below is the blog from last night.  Also the January 10th blog was written by Kelsey, sorry I forgot to sign my name.

We started the week with Amy sharing Mark 8:1-10 emphasizing the word multiply. As usual, God was spot on speaking through her.  We have all had moments this week when the word multiply has struck us.  We were lessened to 7 people a few days before take off and while John and his skills have been missed, God's sovereignty is overwhelming.  I felt our appreciation for the inner workings of the children's home was multiplied as a few of us learned how to do laundry and witnessed how hard the mamas work. Our love for the children multiplied each day we spent with them.  Janese saw the impact of the school multiplied as the teachers embraced kinesthetic learning.  Frustrations were multiplied as Micah and Rick struggled through construction projects, but the joy of the children multiplied when we turned the lights on.  The bond between LCF and Haiti as well as the number of people working were multiplied as we worked together shoveling rubble and cleaning up the community.  The bond between LCF and SDLG was multiplied as we worshipped with them throughout the week and sat in on their leadership meeting this afternoon.  Our love for each other and the Vavals multiplied as we laughed and fellowshipped this week.  Our love for God and His work among the nations multiplied as we have been humbly included this week.
Thank you for your prayers.

With love & and for the kingdom
