Greetings beloved family and friends, It’s Sunday morn and we are all preparing for the various churches that we will have the privilege of serving at. The two musicians, Justin and Tessa, along with yours truly went to a fairly large Baptist church farther down the mountain side. I’m guessing a crowd of 200-250 were […]
Greetings beloved family and friends, Yesterday (Friday) started with our usual rooster crowing 6 AM morning wakeup. Our musicians headed up to a school high in the mountains to play a few songs for the kids. I stayed back at the mission house preparing for our evening concert that I would preach the gospel at […]
Hello beloved family and friends, Days 3 and 4 have been non-stop. 90 plus degrees, hot and humid, preparing, teaching, preaching, praying, singing and trying to learn a few words in Creole, and yes eating chicken and rice again! They have changed the Pastors conference from 4 days to 3 days timewise. Which means I […]

Because we have no showers or running water we have one large blue 50 gallon drum filled with cold water in the bathroom. As one prepares for the Haitian Bucket Bath (similar to the Liberian Bucket Bath), you first must prepare your mind for cold mountain rain water to be splashed across one’s fleshly elements. […]
Creole is the native tongue in Haiti. All the other languages that I fluently speak like German, Spanish, Greek and English just get in the way of trying to learn another one. Of course none of us speak Creole, so it’s been both fun and frustrating at times. Yesterday as we started our Bible teaching, […]
