Well hello there family and friends! Just wanted to fill you in on some stuff that I have been up to. Well, since I last posted on Wednesday, let me fill you on what I have done recently. I have had my briefing and training for my internship and let me tell you, I'm really excited to see what God is going to do this summer!! My luggage arrived, which is a plus, because now I actually have clothes! :)
Yesterday, I helped around the campus (it was a campus day) and played with the Special Ed children. They are so joyful, it is amazing! I'm so touched by them! We also did some VBS for the neighborhood children and I got to see some of the Haitian people I made friends with last year! For all of you who went with me last year, the kids are asking for you. Eddy says Hi Becca! Michelle says Hi to Lance and Steve. They want you to come back and play with them! These children are adorable and such a blessing despite the fact that they ask for dlo (water) and say that they are grangou (hungry) and ask for cookies all the time. My Creole is getting better and I've only been here 4 days!
Another thing I found out that there are actual zombies here! Kind of Scary. The demons that possess this country really are at work. The witch doctors enchant dead bodies and can control them while they are dead. This is a scary thought. I also went to L'Anse A Foleur today, which is the voodoo capital and we got into a conversation with a child who was saying to pray to Satan instead of our Jesus the King! You can pray that the spiritual warfare in this city will be lessoned so that the lost can be found! Thank You Jesus for already having the victory!!
Another crazy thing is what is happening to some of the interns. They are getting the Haitian Sensation (diarreha and vomiting). Pray that I can stay healthy as I am sharing a room with these young men! Last night, one of the interns, named Hickory, got up to get some water and 15 minutes later I was informed by one of the other interns that he had blacked out twice. Us guys got up at the early time of 1:40 in the morning and went to see if we could help. While standing in the concrete hallway, the cats that live on campus started to moan! Goodness gracious those cats are scary because they try to bite you and I swear they could kill you if they ganged up! They look like a hoard of little demons!
I'm having a blast here in Haiti. I'm excited I get to be here for two months! I am starting to get tired, but it's worth it!
Bondye beni ou (God Bless You)
