Meeting the people of Montrouis

The girls have some trouble uploading videos from Haiti because, well, it's Haiti and they're even lucky to have internet ;) They get limited bandwidth and videos take up WAY too much of that, so I decided I'd share them on our IMPACT blog so you could see a bit of what's going on in Montrouis.

Here they are getting to know some of the kids that live at the mission... only girls could be entertained for long periods of time playing games like this - Naika caught on quick! 


We have some videos of Dr. Kerry Reeves explaining to us why the people in his discipleship program in the fishing village of Callalan are so eager to learn English and how our team can help them while learning Creole.  We also have a video of the girls introducing themselves in Creole and the Haitians introducing themselves in English.  I'm still trying to figure out how to upload them, but I'll put links in as soon as I figure it out.  I'm excited to go back and see what incredible progress has been made in a few months... my hunch is that the English/Creole language barrier will hardly be a barrier anymore :)

God is SO good.  Kerry and Joy Reeves & Stephen and Autumn Byxbe are THRILLED to have the girls there and know that it will make a huge difference in the quality and quantity of ministry that can and will happen there in Montrouis/Saint Marc.  We are so blessed to have been called to partner with New Vision Haiti and pray that God will bring much fruit.  While Lindsey and I are sad to be home, we are grateful to have had the opportunity to go and we know that God will use our stories to invite people into the story of what He's continuing to do across the globe.
