Sunday and the rest of the week

Sunday we went to church in TiTiyan. This is the village next to the compound. The pastor asked the ones that were newly baptised to stand. 77 people stood and they had just been baptiesed. We were privieged to take communion with them

Tuesday and Thursday I went with North Carolina Baptist to clinics. We saw 160 on Tuesday and must have seen more then that on Thursday as we went to a tent city that they are calling Obama. The people just moved on the a mans private land and sat up their tents. We rode to the clinic in a TAPTAP. It is a small pickup brghtly painted that you ride in the back and when you want off you tap on the the side of top of the pickup shell. 26 people accepted Christ as Savior on Thursday. They shared using a Evangel Cube. It was a neat way to share the gospel.

This week we have not had any new burns just the two year olds and Moto burns from last week. They are healing fast.

We have had a team here from Kentucky here this week. They have worked on rebuilding the damage to a large church, Making and painting church benches, sealing a roof and other projects that need done. We have had the men who work on the compound fixing all the cracks from the earthquake damage. So now alot of the buildings will need repainted.

We each take a night and tell our testimony and what we are doing at Global. It has been neat to hear the stories of our fellow workers and how they made it to the mission field.

Wednesday night we were just finishing supper when it started raining. We had a inch and 6 tenths in 30 minutes. Just as the rain was going good we had a employee tell us that her brother in law had been in a truck accident and was at the gate as they could not get anyone to treat him. We were soaked by the time we made it to the car. We had to drive the car to the end of the property. We thought that we would get stuck. People were carrying him to meet us. They slipped and fell just before they made it to the car. We loaded him in the car and started to the clinic. We did not know how badly injured he was. He just had a badly cut forehead and had wounds to arm and a dislocated shoulder. We treated him and then you have to find a way to get him home as the village does not have lights and is not very safe to be driving in. So you can tell that life changes fast here.

Glen has fixed so many things this week. We have had all kinds of things go down. He is waiting on parts. Please pray that the parts will arrive before we leave so that he can finish fixing what he has apart.

Tomorrow the team leaves and so does our director David Heady. Glen is headed to the airport in town. We are going to the English church in town on Sunday. We will eat out and shop for groceries as you do not usually go into Port a Prince.

I guess the other thing that happened is that we moved into
Kevin and Susan Bruns house to take care of their dogs as they are in the States for 6 weeks. We have a beautiful view of the ocean and mountains. We are watching Basset Hound and a Rotwieler. We will be here until May 23.
Kevins Family is from Torrington Wyoming.
