That is a lot of 'water under the bridge' since we last blogged to the point where I had forgotten how to log in!
All along the way there are lessons to learn, opportunities to bless and be blessed, wonders of God and amazing people.
The more we learn and experience, the more we realize how much we do not know! The struggles along the way are just as important as the 'wow' moments! Maybe even more. We look forward to what lies ahead in the confidence that God is with us.
Our hearts are aching for the people of Haiti as they suffer with the aftermath of the earthquake, the hurricane and the cholera outbreak. In the midst of all this an election campaign is underway.
The press does not tell many important stories about Haiti - for example Haitians cannot cross the border into the Dominican Republic just now which shuts down the livelihoods of those who purchased goods for market in the DR.
On the plus side CRWRC is hard at work - if you want to learn more check out
http://www.crcna.org/pages/crwrc_reliefresources.cfm for newsletters and videos from our time in Haiti
http://www.crwrc.org/pages/crwrc.cfm for their wonderful work globally.
So - that's it for now - perhaps some photos will follow! Perhaps!
Advent is upon us and we are listening to some Chris Tomlin music on you tube. It was not so long ago that I did not know what you tube was! (thanks Caleb).
Christmas - it is so NOT about stuff!
Bless you all
