Reuniting

I can not tell you how exciting it is to be back here in Haiti.  We had flawless travels today and our team is already bonding and having a wonderful time in each others company.  As we exited the airport we were welcomed with huge hugs and the beautiful smiles of Brunet, Maxim, Nickinson and Andre. After our greeting it was time to make our trek to the guesthouse. Children running out from behind their homes yelling, "Hey you! Hey You!", the bumpy ride of the tap tap, the bustling of people going here and there on the streets and the joy that was coming from our crew was awesome!

Once we got the suitcases and backpacks where they needed to go, we were able to enjoy a delicious spaghetti meal. After dinner our entire team sat outside together and talked about anything from what pets we all have to what is your dream job and enjoyed each others company.

I am so thankful to have a chance to see FanFan while we are here! FanFan baptized me last summer in the ocean and he is an amazing man of God.  He prayed a blessing over our team, and later on in the evening shared a time of worship with us as well. What a blessing he is and I am overjoyed by having his presence around the guesthouse this week! Please be in prayer for him to get his interview that is needed for him to get his visa to leave the country and be reunited with his beautiful wife, Julie and their baby on the way. He is hopeful it will be very soon!

Three of us had quite the adventure tonight as everyone was settling in for the night, but it will have to wait until the next post. Bed is calling and I will need to be rested up for our water truck day tomorrow.

Bondye Beni'ou,

Alicia
