Wow! Everything just goes so fast down here that the blog can get away from you in a hurry. We had a busy Thanksgiving weekend as many of you did as well, we are sure! Recently our third team of November came and visited and completed many helpful projects. We weren't able to load their pictures very well, so we apologize about that. The internet access here is still a work in progress and probably always will be.
Here are the captions we would have put on the photos:
Larry Van Veldhuizen is a Farmer from Doon, Iowa. “It's not what I did for the Haitians, but what the Haitians did for me.”
Chris Godfredsen is a bi-vocational pastor from Rock Valley, Iowa... “God revealed himself to me in some amazing ways, especially (through) His people.”
Scott Lee is a Farmer from Inwood, Iowa. “With all the 'stuff' we have in the U.S., why aren't we smiling as much as the Haitians?”
Jen Peters (Geri Kraai's grand-daughter) is a teacher from Indianola, Iowa. “Nothing I could say would be enough. I love it here.”
Matt Dibbet is a cattle herdsmen from Sioux Center, Iowa. “No broadcasting...keep it dialed in.” (some inside jokes from the trip)
Bob Huyser is a farmer from Rock Valley, Iowa. “Great to get to know the Haitian culture.”
Scott Gray is a farmer from Sioux Center, Iowa. “Really enjoyed time at Kum-n-Go (Madame Jack's).”
Geri Kraai is here on at least her 6th trip, visiting from Rock Valley. “What a week! Just keeps getting better.”
Dee Pieper is a counselor from Sioux Center, Iowa. “Loved working with Bible Study with the women.”
Bruce Milliken is on the Mission Haiti board and lives in Sioux Falls. “Working side-by-side with our Haitian brothers and sisters is always great!”
Thanks to everyone for praying for that team and for our family. We are doing well. Next we will try to upload photos from our Thanksgiving getaway and from a huge birthday party we attended on Sunday. We are expecting the next team this Friday, so please begin praying for them and the medical clinics they will host around our community.
Enjoy Your Winter Adventure!
