We're Back Home, Final Update

To all who followed us daily, my apologies for the late update.
We had little access to the internet while we were in country on the distribution.
We had a terrific team of people working together to serve the dear ones who came for therapy, mobility and for encouragement.
We served in the neighborhood of 90 people through the week and it was a very wonderful experience.
It was a privilege and honor to work with the students from Huntington University and their professor, Nate Short. These are some outstanding people, our future is bright.
The work was, as always, a challenge as the conditions were less than ideal. But God blessed and we had everything we needed to get the jobs done and the people were more than gracious and appreciative of our efforts.
I grew to love and appreciate the community we served.
God Bless the ones we served and the ones we worked with while there. Thank you all for your prayers and support, we could not have done as well without our prayer warriors.

Very Close now to Arriving

Well, here we are, two days from landing in Haiti. A mixture of excitement and wondering if we have thought of everything, packed everything, have we prayed enough?
We will find out very soon I suppose.
I am reminded now of the feeding of the 5000 and God's faithfulness then, He took what was offered, satisfied them all and then as a show of grace and faithfulness, they collected the spare.
He always makes spare when we bring what we have and put it in His hands.
So, when we get there and remember what we wanted to pack but didn't, look for what we need but didn't pack or think "boy, that would sure be handy now", God will provide. And not only provide, He will provide in abundance so that we will know it had to be Him looking out for us.
As we prepare to board the plane, where ever we are, pray for safe travels, on time flights and for rest as we go out to serve.
Thanks for praying,
Garry
