August Faith Haiti Trip 8/12/10

8/12/10


Another trip to Haiti with a team from Faith to love on orphans and hopefully further confirm the Lord’s plans for our church visiting often and loving the fatherless. Looking back over the past year, God has put me on quite a ride- who would have thought that in the course of a year I will have made 5 trips to Haiti?

The first day of trying to get to Haiti has been a disappointment because of mechanical issues on the plan flying from Denver to Miami. We had a very small connection window and almost any small issue could certainly put chances of connecting to the last flight to Haiti slim and none. As it turned out there was a hydraulic leak with the landing gear- I’d gladly rather arrive safe than the alternative! But the cost was the loss of half a day in Haiti on an already seemingly short trip. While there is some disappointment, the team is resilient- I expect great things from this team!

James 1:27- Why does James say that religion that is pure and faultless is this- to visit orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being defiled by the world? More to come…
