Three New Goats!

Unloading 'Kids Against Hunger' food

Last Sunday, Ken, Mary, Gail and I went to another church that Living Water Ministries built and supports. It’s in the village of Ti Anse. It’s a very small church but was filled to capacity, about 75 people. The little Haitian Creole I know was enough to know he was speaking on grace alone, faith alone, scripture alone. He also has a very good delivery to his message.

The rest of Sunday was spent relaxing. Later in the afternoon, Ken, Mary and Gail took a swim in the ocean. I decided to stay back, I’m not too much of a swimmer!

Our new 'Billy' and two Nannies

Yesterday also saw the arrival of another team from Global Compassion Ministries. Including Jerry, Karl, and Danny. They followed two trucks of food up here loaded with ‘Kids Against Hunger’ meals. We got the trucks unloaded mid afternoon and the drivers headed back to Port au Prince. Today they plan a food distribution in the village of Ti Anse.

This morning, Zoray (a Haitian that works on the campus) went to the market in Anse Rouge to purchase 3 goats for us, two nanny’s and one Billy. We pray it will be the start of a small herd. We have them tied up and they are all adjusting nicely to their new surroundings.

While Gail and I were dealing with the new goats, the rest of the group distributed food in Ti Anse. Also this morning, George Truelove came to spend a few days helping out with the food distribution and fellowship with all of us. He and his wife Carol Ann have a clinic about 4 hours away from us. I think they have been missionaries in Haiti for over 30 years, but don’t hold me to the exact number of years they’ve been in country.

This afternoon Karl and Christian (a fantastic young Haitian interpreture) along with some help from Ken, built a solar oven. I look forward to trying it out tomorrow!
