Family and Friends,
We hope you have enjoyed a wonderful October. We definitely have had a great month down here in Haiti and look forward to an even better November. There have been a few cooler days when the high only reached 89 or so. We're thinking about breaking out the jackets.
Please remember Mission Haiti in your prayers over the next few weeks as we host three mission teams and hope to make a positive impact on our community in so many ways. We Grimms will need a big dose of energy, health, and perseverance to handle this marathon of ministry. We won't share a house with the teams like we used to, so that will help us a lot.
In this post we also are excited to introduce "The Ti-Riviere Times" a somewhat true, somewhat fictional, humorous newspaper based on the characters in our village. If you have visited Ti-Riviere on a mission trip or just followed our blog regularly, this should provide you with a few laughs. Just click on the little bar below the main picture, dowload the "November 2011" file, and enjoy yourself. Let us know if it doesn't work for you, either to download or to make you laugh, and we'll give you your money back. Ha! Ha!
We hope you have had a fun Reformation Day, or Harvest Festival, or Family Fun Night, or Beggar's Night, or whatever you are accustomed to celebrating this time of year. In Haiti the whole "Halloween" issue is a lot more black and white. No one pretends it is a fun little party for kids here. They just call it "The Day of Death (or the dead)." Many Christians spend the day praying at church.
We'll try our best to post during the next few weeks, but please forgive us if we get a bit behind. Be careful as the snows start to come, and enjoy some great family time this November and December.
Happy Adventuring!
