New Friends =)


Life in Haiti is so fun.  I love the dependency and trust I have to rely on the Lord every minute and in every moment.  At first, it was hard for me to live here because I felt lonely and I missed my friends, community, and people my age.  God immediately provided me with AMAZING friends =) Haitian friends, American friends, Haitian-American friends!  I love being able to go be with them, listen to what the Lord is teaching them, tell them what the Lord is teaching me, encourage one another, provide comfort for one another, and have fun!  None of this would happen if it wasn’t for the Lord.  Before I go to bed I just thank God for all He has done, is doing, and will do.  Because He was, He is, and Is to come (Revelation 1:8)- He is the Great I am- Immanuel meaning God with Us (Matthew 1:23)!

I don’t have very many pictures with my friends (I kind of forget to take pictures- but I will for sure work on it!) Here is a picture of my friend Rocky at his wedding a few weeks ago.
 


 I love having new experiences in Haiti that we have in the United States.  I think it is so cool to compare the cultures and how God made them different yet similar.  When we were on our way to the wedding, we were running kind of late.  The wedding was supposed to start at 10:00- we showed up at 10:20 hoping to sneak in the back so no one would notice we were late… Well we were the first people there!  The 10:00 wedding started around 11:45 =) I don’t think you would see that in the United States. Haha
