In the States with Thoughts of Haiti.

When we gave Bibles to the Port au Prince grads, they were very excited, some kissing the book!  This was a last minute gift as Family Harvest of Tinley Park, Robb Thompson Ministries sent us the money shortly before graduation.  Surprises are always the best!  Pastor Cesar is doing a wonderful job with his Bible school.  We are blessed to have him, especially right now.
 During the graduation part of the service the boys played their video games....not without permission.  Olivier's is broken so he can only watch Junior play, that's probably why Junior smiled and he didn't. 
 I preached the morning service not at all prepared for a wedding sermon, so I sort of mixed it up.  We so love this church as we see the attendance growing each time we are there. To think that the earthquake took the humble building he had and this now, is so much more. Out of tragedy surely can come triumph's and blessing.
It was also Mother's Day in Haiti this particular Sunday, (the last one of May) and the boys handed me an envelope which contained their drawing. They had worked on it the day before, as I saw them laboring.  It was a complete joy for me to receive it.
