The "New" New for Us

The move and transition to our new role here in Haiti has been beyond amazing!  We have often reflected on the last few months and how the Lord is working in our lives.  When we have the opportunity to tell people about our new adventure, I love to be reminded and explain how the Holy Spirit interceded for us and a prayer was answered that we couldn’t even put into words at the time!  Through this we have also been reminded of how our plans should always be thought of in pencil, because God is the ultimate editor.  He is working through us, His power is within us, and chooses to use us even with all our faults.  Colossians 1:29 “That’s why I work and struggle so hard, depending on Christ’s mighty power that works within me.”

We were blessed by a team serving at Hands and Feet last week that were gracious enough to take on the task of helping us move, and close in the porch of our new house so the kids could have a room.   So as we settle in, and find our groove here, we are full of joy and life to share with those we are doing life with.  Currently we are living at the Children's Village with 27 children, 4 house moms, 2 cooks and a few Pastors that help over see the property and the kids.  So our first task is to meet and spend time with our neighbors.  How fun is that!  This past weekend we had a training that was so encouraging and enlightening both, emotionally and spiritually, of how we can pour into the Haitian culture and our kids better. 





Our family has been through a lot of transition and change, even with all being good, it still comes with some chaos.  The kids have been out of rhythm and routine over the last week and it is showing greatly!  (aka… they are being absolutely crazy!)  Now that we are in our new home, we will have to get back on some sort of rhythm and create a new normal (again).   For now I wanted to share pictures that we have taken over the last few weeks so you can kind of see what we have been up to, sometimes that is easier then finding words.
