1/13/14

What a wonderful day to be in this beautiful country.  The day was spent with the usual sand sifting and nail pulling, followed by building a gigantic scaffolding in the altar end of the sanctuary.  This scaffolding will allow the Haitian craftsmen to finish the parging of the gables at the end of the church (30ish feet to the top).
We were a bit sad because it was the children's first day back to school after Christmas break.  Happily, many of them came right after school to see us.

The generous and talented wife of Pastor Jacob, Philona, furnished us with a spectacular final meal at the quest house.  We were blessed with a special cake which said, "Thanks and we love you. Have a safe trip home."  Delish!!!

Today was our final day at Olivier and Petit Goave, and tomorrow we will depart for Port au Prince for a bit of site seeing and shopping.  Wednesday morning we will leave for home.  We will miss our new and old Haitian friends, but hope to return at a later date.

Good night and God bless!!
"Dad" Maurice Lindsey, Sr.
