Some Friends!

Just incase you wanted to know I have a few friends who left for Haiti on the 15th! This was a little insert they had before they left!! If you guys could pray for them it would be much appreciated!!

Second, THANK YOU SO MUCH to everyone who has been praying already for our trip. God is good, and it looks like we will be able to make the trip as planned. If you had not hear, there has been a lot of political unrest, especially in the capital (Port Au Prince) and in Cap Haitian, due to the recent elections and the corrupt government. For the past few weeks, we have not been completely sure whether or not we would be able to go tomorrow, but after talking to Gersan and Betty today, it looks like "Operation Bunk Beds" is a go. (Jack's words). So, thank you to everyone who has been praying for us as we've been waiting and trying to make this decision.

Here are some prayer requests for now....
1- We are meeting at the Monson's house tonight to finish packing. Pray that that goes well and everything fits and weighs the correct amounts.
2- We fly out at 6AM in the morning- pray for safe flights and arrival in PAP tomorrow afternoon.
3- Please pray for safety for the entire trip- safety amist the political unrest, cholera epidemic, and just being in Haiti in general and doing construction.
4- Pray that the Lord would use us to serve the Haitians well and that we would be able to share the Love of Christ with them, both in the way we act as well as in what we say (however broken our Creole is) :)

Thank you guys so much! Expect to hear updates through this group every few days or so. If you are not getting updates and would like to, let Karin Monson know, and she will make sure you get them.

Have a great day, and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!

- Daniel, Jack, & Greta
