Snakes, Spider's and no Internet

Greetings from Lapila, Haiti,

Wow how time has flown by since we have been here. Our snakes have hidden themselves amongst the inside of the trees. We can't seem to find them but have found there shedding of there skin so we know they are sill there. Friday I found my first tarantula. I was on my way to the bathroom and I saw this back thing laying still on the floor and of course I am scared of spiders I run and get Jonathan he walks back there and says yep thats a tarantula. He got some spray and sprayed him and kicked him out the door. I dont think Jonathan has ever seen me run like that in a long time. Needless to say it was kind of funny. The parental units arrived safely with no problems friday. Bring in 1200lbs and Praise the Lord no charge from customs. Friday night we started having problems with our internet. Can't get on email, it loads very slow and the funny thing is can get on skype. This morning it seems to be working but not sure how long. Please pray it will be fixed soon. Sunday Jonathan was able to preach and we sang a song in english to them. After services we handed out candy. This was a real treat for these kids as they dont just go down to the local store and buy some. Thank you to our home church and a few others who gave the candy for us to give out. We also have a huge praise we found out there will be a team here in March who will be replacing our roof on our house. Praising the Lord for that. Please continue to keep us in Prayer.

Parental units to arrive soon.........

Good morning from Lapila, Haiti,

The sun is up and the wind is blowing lightly. Oh how thankful I am the Lord gave me another day. We both are up bright and early. Our snake hunter aka Jonathan is still looking for our friendly snakes but I think they are tried of him trying to find them so they have hidden themselves amongst the trees. I personally thinks thats great. Over the weekend we went and surveyed our house. We are so excited. There are a few things that need to be down. One being the roof. It is in bad shape. Cost for that materiels and all including ceiling tiles are 6500.00. Please pray with us reguarding that.  Jonathan and I are working on things around the compund. Tomorrow Jonathan's dad and mom return. Next week the clinic will open and I have the opportunity to work in the school. That I am truely excited too. Please continue to keep us in prayer as we are here.

Snakes, Snakes and more snakes.........

Greetings from Lapila, Haiti,

Can anyone say snake. Well I can Jonathan happen to be out last night and looking up in the tree and found a snaking coming out of the hole in the tree. Well today we found a couple more. So I think that makes a total of six he has found. After doing some research we found out that it happens to be mating season for the snakes here. So we probably see more. So please pray that the Lord protects us from the boas we have in the trees. We took a few pictures and will post later. Yesterday Jonathan and I went to church down in Gran Latanya. Jonathan had the opportunity to preach. I am starting to understand certain words more and more. Praising the Lord for that. The weather is beautiful here. Today I went out to the clinic and put all the items we brought in with us away. We open clinic here next week and I am looking forward to it. The Lord has greatly blessed with lots of match box cars, toys, clothes and blankets to give away while clinic is open. Very thankful to all who gave. Thank you to all who pray for Jonathan and I each and everyday.

Yea we made it!!!!!!!

Greetings from the beautiful Lapila, Haiti,

Let me just start by saying God is Good all the time and All the God is Good. Wednesday Jonathan and I finished up all our food shopping and took our luggage to MFI where it was weighed. Praise the Lord we only had 389 in weight it was well under what we thought we would have. Praise the Lord and everything was able to go on the plane with us. Jonathan and I woke up bright and early this morning drove to the airplane hangar and we boarded a DC-3 headed towards Haiti. When we left Florida it was very foggy. The plane ride was a little bumpy over the Bahamas but after that it was a very smooth ride. We landed in Cape Haitian to clear immigrations then back on the plane for our last stop Pignon, Haiti. Customs allowed us to go through with NO CHARGE Praise the Lord!!!!! We must say thank you for all who prayed today. Without your faithful prayers we would not be where we are today. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!!!! Its been a long but good day and I am so very thankful to the Lord for allowing Jonathan and I to be here.
