Oh my goodness, it's been almost a month since I last posted. Wow, that is a long time. I will try to remember all that has happened since I last posted, but I am 23 now and my brain cells seem to be fading. ;-)
The last weekend in March I went with Kryk, Deborah, and their kids to the beach house. I wasn't going to go but they begged me to go and just forget my work, so I gave in and went! I had a wonderful time though. Very relaxing. It was nice to just read my book and Bible and not do much of anything else. A nice break.
The last two weeks my friend Rachel has been visiting me and it has been wonderful!! I put her to work helping me with some of the Bible curriculum stories. Then Chris got a hold of her and she helped with translating for the next Masters class. She has been a great help and has kept me company which I have been very thankful for! This last weekend Rachel was actually able to go out of the mission compound and see more of Haiti. On Saturday morning Pastor Rob took Rach, two other men from CO, and I to Adrien school and church. It was about an hour drive and then a 45 min walk/hike up to the school and church. It was good time. It wasn't too hot, very humid but that's Haiti all the time. I did get sun burned on my neck, next time I am going to wear my hair down or put sun screen on. After our drive we came back to the mission had some lunch and then Kryk and Deborah took us and the men to a really cool place where you can look out onto all of Port au Prince. It was a great view. You could see the ocean, the airport, the palace, and a lot of houses/shacks. I enjoyed seeing it because it gave me perspective on where I'm at and where everything is located.
To go back in time, my birthday and Easter were really good!! On Easter all the missionaries on the compound got together and had a sunrise service at 6:30am, had a little breakfast at Pastor Rob and Patti's, and then we all went to church. We had a picnic at Elsa's which was very nice and then we just rested the rest of the afternoon until B-study time where we had a little BD celebration for me. Everyone was really sweet with all their gifts and cards.
I have a lot of pictures from the last month so I will put a few of them up here sometime soon.
That's all for now...
