WOW. what a crazy day. Brian left this morning so we had 3 providers to see all our patients. And yet those few carried the presence and purpose of our God. We saw advanced stage cancer, 104 temperature, weird skin diseases, and the strangest complaints. I am not a Pediatrician or Dermatologist! God shrunk and [...]
“Jezi, mwen reme la vi’m” That’s what I said to the Lord as the Haiti wind blew my ocean soaked hair on the bed of a full pick up truck on our way back from a brilliantly fun and refilling Sabbath at the beach. “Jesus, I love my life.” I said. After a long hard [...]
April 22, 2010 “I’m havin’ a good experience. Life is pretty good, and the ministry school. After I was walking back and thinking about how everything is devastated by the earthquake here on Jan 12 and how Ricardo and Rodney teaching about…reality, and how God’s word is Real.

It seems that there is always something to do here and wow it doesn’t take a break. It is great to get all the stuff done, but the list builds just as fast as we can mark it off. During the day we have been working on field innovations. What I mean is for the [...]

Day One: Leaving at 3:30 without coffee was easy, because our friend Brandon Ables brought me monster energy drink. We flew a lot.
