Haiti: Day Four.

The plan for today was changed several time, but ‘our’ plans are never as important as God’s plan. The original plan for the day was to prepare food at the school, but the girls do not have school this week because of a festival. The next plan was to visit downtown, but that wasn’t possible either because of the festival.
We started out the day by going to visit a possible new location for the girls home. It was very nice! This is the second one that we have seen, and I like the second one much better than the first. If all goes to plan, we should be moving the girls with-in the next couple of days. There ended up being a problem with one of the cars while we were there, so we stayed there quite a while.
Once the car was fixed, we headed over to AFCA. I was in the car with Serge, Ms. Barbie and Sarah. I had been having an itch to visit an art vender. We passed one on the way and stopped! It was great. I didn’t buy anything, but it was a good ‘I’ve been to Haiti and done this .. ‘ experience. Sarah bought two paintings, and it was so neat to listen to Serge and Ms. Barbie negotiate the price.
After our shopping adventure, we continued on to AFCA. I think we got there about 12, and at 12:30 we did a Bible lesson and craft. We did the story of how Jesus calmed the storm, and made pinwheels to go along with it. The girls really enjoyed this.
We didn’t do much else with them the rest of the day except for play games and just fellowship. In many ways those days are my favorite, because you don’t have to be concerned with projects finished – you just get to be around them.
Please keep the prayers coming.

Blessings,
Han
