Thank you for the prayers for my mom. Surgery went very well. Thankful we will be around for November to help the folks out while Mom takes it easy and heals.Being on the fringe of American medicine and watching the news reports of the distraction of Sandy in the USA emphasized how different life remains in Haiti.
Watching New Yorkers lined up with buckets to bring back water to their homes or sharing electrical strips to charge phones and computers looks very familiar other than location and backdrop.
Our Haitian family wrote today inquiring about our family and friends. Know that the Haitian Christians continue to pray for the victims of hurricane Sandy both in Haiti, Cuba, and the USA.
Friday Cory and I will drop Anna off at my brother Todd's to help with the fall leaves and then drop Eli off for some testing for his dyslexia [Uncle Todd will get him later]. Then Cory and I will continue on for a day on the road on our way to share at the first mission conference of The River church in Minong, Wisconsin. On the way back to Michigan on Sunday afternoon we will stop in to share with Hillsboro Wesleyan at 4 p.m.Back in Michigan likely very early Monday morning. Monday's plans will be to take Eli to the Secretary of State so that he can start driving. Tonight he passed his test and tomorrow will be his last class of part 1 of Michigan's driver education. The second event on Monday will be the removal of Anna's teeth.
Thanks for the prayers. Please help me out. Blogging in the USA takes more thinking that in Haiti so this would be a great time to ask questions or suggest topics that you would like to hear more information.

I understand what its like to have dyslexia - I was lucky enough to be diagnosed when I was in grade 2 and had a significant amount of intervention - I trust and pray that Eli will not get discouraged - but stay focused on school and how God can use this as a tool to help others.
Today I am a teacher - who has a compassion for students who struggle.
