Here we go.

First part the of the week, [today we start] we will head to Fauche, Haiti.

On the way we plan to visit with friends in Florida between flights; see a school build at Trou de Nord; meet with Dustin and the team working on the school; overnight at Deep River guest house; talk about trees and plants while there; look into paperwork for the Land Cruiser in Cap Haitian; get a  local sim for the phone; transfer some of our household items from the Land Cruiser to a truck going to Ortlip next week; and hopefully have a short chat with P. Denor, the new national superintendent.

Then a couple nights at Fauche, visiting with friends; checking the gardens and plant nursery; loading up the Land Cruiser; and visiting with Fritzlin's aunt.

End of the week we hope to be heading toward Ortlip and then up the mountain to Délice. We will not have internet at Fauche so I hope to be able to prepare a blog that I can then post during a short break at Ortlip before heading up the mountain.

We are praying that the internet is still working well in the house that we house-sat, while we built our house. If so then we will be able to stay connected with our family, team, and supporters by frequent walks over to check and connect.

If not we will try to stay connected now and then by phone. We will be leaving a few contact emails with our teammates, Dustin and Nancy. We will also rely on them to post prayer concerns on the AMP Facebook prayer group.

I will try to get a blog out before heading up the mountain the end of next week sharing the first part of our journey home, during a short stop during our travels between Fauche and Délice.

I hope to celebrate the arrival of Fall Sept. 22nd by posting a blog from Délice celebrating our arrival to Délice, having internet, and our move into the house. If you do not see a blog for a while after that please pray for our internet issues.

But if I cannot post I'll do my best to journal about our move and working on the house so that when I do have a chance to blog I can share the process with you: the highs, lows, and surprises.

I'm reminded how thankful I am that we can connect with God anytime, anyplace, and without the need for technology, gadgets like phones, internet or even the need for paper/pen/stamp. We don't even need to be able to say the words out loud to communicate with our Heavenly Father. Wow..so thankful.

So we head off into the next big adventure. Confident in the Lord's love and plan. Thankful for our great support team and the prayers. Counting our blessings and standing on His promises in the face of unknowns and chanllenges.

Signing out for now...
