" I will love thee, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God , my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the name of the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from my enemies." Psalm 18:1-3
God is good! He truly is my strength- without Him, I would be nothing! This week has been busy- but so much different from last week! I don't have much time...but i thought I'd give you a quick overview of what my week has been like- and then fill you in later!
Tuesday, Cheron and I went to the airport, and then I went out to Children of the Promise (an orphanage for very young, and very ill children.) I was there that afternoon, and then spent the night, and was there until mid-day Wednesday, when Cheron came and picked me up.
Yesterday (Thursday) I took a tap-tap (public transportation) into to the city with one of the boys from the orphanage, to the "Hopital de Fort St. Michel", the Haitian hospital. I spent the day there shadowing/observing a nurse and doctor- definitely the experiance of a life-time! So many stories to tell....so many things never to forget!
Today, we took all the kids, piled in the truck and drove out to the new orphanage property! We had 32 people in the back of the pick-up...incase anyone wants to know just how many people can fit back there... We had a great day of intense soccer, in the intense heat! And...as I'm sure some of you guess...I forgot my sunscreen! So...I am no longer a "white girl" instead...I'm the "red girl"!!
Alright...we're almost out of fuel for the generator...and I'm exhausted, and gonna go to bed!
