Only a few hours remain in the first week of November! 

Saturday morning my studious children spend working on school work. Lest you think that the motivation consisted of only the love to learn....if they complete this curriculum year before next Friday we will spend the day playing games and watching movies. On Monday, Nov. 14th we plan to start a new year of curriculum.

Saturday at dusk I received a call from the clinic to come and consult on a laboring mother. The mother arrived in the early afternoon to deliver her second child but unfortunately her labor pains did nothing and I confirmed the lack of a heartbeat. Because of our limited testing and facilities we sent her to a larger hospital. I prayed with her. 

Haiti did not participate in day light savings this year so no time change for us.

Sometime last week-several wires stolen from the campus. Pastor to file a report with the police today.

Sunday morning heavy drizzle prevented many from attending church but we made it. Interesting the Pastor spend some time correcting a couple points from the message the week prior. See a visiting pastor shared and a couple points made did not fit with what the Wesleyan church teachers so Pastor Jonas clarified what and why.

Sunday we enjoyed our first Moringa from the new plot near the house. One branch from each tree made a small serving for each of us. 

This morning after starting school I went down to clinic. On the way our French teacher who teaches high school here on campus informed me that due to a death in his family he would be unable to hold classes today. He will call when he can met with us again. Then because two Haitian doctors already had the small clinic under control I walked back up to the house to continue school.

With my 'extra' time I'll be working on an E-mail update, reviewing French, read a blog about homeschooling high school and if time remains work on the Creole plant book. 

Praise: Finishing up the school year and bananas to share with the Haitian school children.

Prayer: Problem with stealing. Health for clinic/hospital patients.
