OASIS IN THE CITY


WORLD HARVEST MISSION

Well last evening I finally made it back to Haiti around 9:oo pm . Things were going pretty smoothly and right on time till we boarded the plane in Miami but finally after sitting on two different planes for 3.5 hours and one 1.5 hours between planes we took off for Haiti at 7:15 pm.
Before I arrived I had contacted Sam Streau a long time missionary friend here in Haiti to arrange to be picked up and stay in the guesthouse at the orphanage where he works in Port au Prince. That was a good choice seeing how I arrived five hours past our 3:45 scheduled arrival. Anyway arriving here after a long day of travel feels like that oasis in the desert you read about so often for weary travelers.
Later on today I will head up the coast to the town of Montrouis where I live at Canaan Christian Community. We have two groups coming this month. One is a group of college age young men from Illinois and another is a large medical group from different states led by Drs. Tony Hlavecek and Ric Bonnell. Also this month we will restart construction on the new clinic and be looking for new projects for the "Feet Across the Mountain" ministry. In God's love, steve
