It sounds crazy but I don’t even remember December starting. How did we get here so fast? Some of my forgetfulness may have to do with just how busy November was. The last day of November held a huge pastors meeting in the morning and a baby shower in the afternoon. To say the dayContinue reading “December 2021”

You’re not going to like this, but it is important to understand. Why do we always think that our ways are better? We tend to think that with God, but we also think that with others. “If only people would do it my way, everything would work out.” If you’ve never thought that way thenContinue reading “Bear with me as you read this”

November 1st and 2nd are Haitian holidays so this month started off at home. It was nice to have some days of rest but also some days to get some personal things done. I have been working on renewing my teaching certificate which expires in July. These days helped me to find the time toContinue reading “November 2021”

October begins with rain and a lot of it. It was much needed and appreciated rain as it was so dry, hot, and dusty. Of course, I have a roof over my head so I can say that. For so many who still do not have shelter after the earthquake, rain is hard to dealContinue reading “October 2021”

It is crazy to even think about the fact that it is September. I may have said this last month but I feel like I run a marathon every day and get nowhere. This keeps me pretty confused about days and time. There is so much going on with earthquake relief. RMI continues to workContinue reading “September 2021”

Do you speak the language (Haitian Kreyol)? Yes, I am working on learning the language more in-depth but I know the basics. What kind of barriers do you find when witnessing? Language and cultural things can be barriers but we are blessed with amazing translators at RMI. I have never had someone refuse to listen.Continue reading “faq part 2”

August started off with a bang! God works all the time y’all, He never sleeps. When I was planning out speaking engagements for my time stateside I totally forgot that August 1st was a Sunday. That doesn’t even make sense??? As many times as I looked over calendars and spoke to pastors, it’s crazy. WhenContinue reading “August 2021”

While stateside this summer, I got a lot of questions! I will be sharing these (and the answers) on the blog over the next few months. Here’s the first batch! Most interesting or favorite Haitian food? My favorite is fritay (anything fried: plantains, breadfruit, akra, french fries) and a pile of spicy pikliz with jiContinue reading “faq”
