Here's how we go to church

Greeting's from Haiti,

Today is the Lord's day and what do we do we go to church. For most of you will wake up, eat breakfast , get dressed and hop in the car and drive on into Church. For most Haitian's it not like that at all. They wake up and for most they will not eat breakfast but will get dressed and go to church.  For most they travel by foot and sometimes travel hour's just to come to church. They walk through dirt road's, racket path's, through the river's and muddy stream's. Let me say this DOES NOT stop them. The father's will make sure there child and wife get across dry. Putting there babies on there heads, just so they can come to church. Life here is so very simple. Unlike our people we were able to have a hot breakfast. Unlike our people we were able to hop in the truck and drive the 8 miles. Praise the Lord for safety as we went off roading several times, went mudding too.
You may think 8 miles are nothing but with our road's here it really takes an 1hour and a half. We arrived at Las Ma Moon to be greeted with smiles and hug's. After we arrive we sing a few song's. Now Sunday school has begun and more people have arrived. See Haiti has no concept of time. So when the music begins our people know it's time to come to church. By the time Sunday school finishes the church is near full. Morning worship hour has began. Today my father in law preached on modesty. We Praise the Lord for a new day and being able to be in church and for safety. Below is picture's of our morning drive. Picture's will not do it justice. If you have any question's please ask. Thank you for taking a moment to read. I pray this will be a blessing to you.
