That is how we start each new day after devotions so our wish is the same for you all, have a good day in Jesus!
It was my turn to blog last night and we had no power and then EDH came on but I couldnot get in the mood, too close to bedtime and computer and all was off.
Karen, Dickie, Pastor Jim are just pulling out of the yard (Dickie driving) enroute to pick up Luckner and then off to St. Marc to pick up supplies and go to the bank.
Gail and I are going to do some paper work for Karen and then are going down to the kids home to play and give gifts.
Yesterday:
Pastor Jim got his first job yesterday morning at 7:10 AM and even with a helper (Fritz) it still isn't finished and he is off to St. Marc. What do you think of that kind of help?
Trueman (a man of patience) worked on the visitor computer and finally this morning with Janet's help he has it all done. Thank you Trueman and Janet.
Gail and Karen worked on school lists and many odd jobs.
Dickie built 3 shelves for the kids home and put doors on the kitchen cabinet that held dishes and cutlery.
I did some correspondence for Karen and not much else.
We all loved on Alex all day , as usual, and he loved the attention.
Karen was off in 25 different directions as usual and had to go to the hospital and P Jim, Gail and I went with her. She called Odner (security) to come and accompany us. I am going to let Gail describe that part of our day....... My first experience with a Haitian Hospital... We went in the Hats truck and Cecile and Sabine went by tap tap as Sabine has a very sore leg. After much testing no answer to that problem. Karen has demanded more tests be done. I was pleasantly surprised by the professionalism and cleanliness apparent in all area's that we visited. Karen did the business she needed to do and then took us on a tour. There were many people waiting for their appointments with the Doctor. When they arrive at the hospital they have to check in get their personal medical charts and pay for their visit ahead of time. Then they sit and wait for the doctor. If they have to be admitted, the hospital staff do no personal care for the patient. The family must wash and clean, change their bedding and clothing, bathe them and feed them for the entire time they are there. And we complain about our hospitals. Sandra says there is an amazing difference this visit compared to her last one in 2006.
