Sandy's blessings from Haiti

It is difficult to put into words what a true blessing this mission trip to Haiti has been for me.  I knew upon hearing that the mission team would be returning to The House of the Lambs of God Orphanage that I wanted to go.  I so wanted to once again be with precious girls that share their love with you the minute you walk through those gates.  I wanted to once more tell Emily, Pastor Daniel and Clynie how no one is as selfless and committed to doing God’s work as they are.  I was eager to see the boy’s orphanage completed and filled with joyful little boys.  But most of all, I was looking forward to seeing how God would use our team to do His work. God never disappoints, so I will just say He did it perfectly.  Each team member brought their unique gift each day with joy and happiness.  These gifts were designed by God completely for the needs of each day.  Everyday was a blessing to us as we did our best to serve His loving children.  Personally, my favorite part of each day was asking each patient after their triage form was filled out if we could pray together.  There was always a shy smile (male or female) on their face and a “oui” response.  The prayers were mostly for healing and hope but also for sharing God’s love for His children. 

I feel honored to have been a part of this mission team.  I am grateful for knowing and loving all of you and most of all thankful to our divine and loving Heavenly Father.
