April has been a bittersweet month! Here are some of the highlights.
The month started out with celebrating Easter. We had a few days off of work. These were great days of rest and fellowship with my fellow missionaries! Otis and I had our little friend, Kambria, we got to enjoy a delicious steak dinner brought in by a sweet team back in January, and we celebrated Easter with a sunrise service. The next week brought MEBSH annual convention. We were unable to have convention last year because of COVID restrictions. It was nice to see the event return this year. Convention brings many, many people into Simon. People that cannot come can listen on the radio or watch it. It is broadcast live on Facebook as well. I really enjoy walking down the Simon road and seeing all of the hustle and bustle.
I was lucky enough to have two visitors with me this month. Mama and Renata spent a week here with Otis and I. We went on some adventures and also just spent some downtime together. More fun photos from that week to come on all of our Facebooks, I am sure!
Ministry wise, we have been working on getting new applicants for next fall. This means traveling to the church, taking down the information, and taking a photo of the child. Then we return to the office to enter the informaiton into our system and edit the photos to be printed in the states. We have also been passing out the gifts that sponsors send for the children. Mama and Renata had a chance to do that with us. It is always such a blessing to witness.
Your continued prayers are much appreciated. Please remember the country of Haiti, the leaders and the people. Pray for my fellow missionaries as it is coming up to the time of year for furlough and many will be traveling. I am not yet sure when I personally will be traveling but I hope to know sometime soon.
Love You to Haiti and Back
