It's Way Past Time for an Update!

Wow! I find it hard to believe that it's been 3 months since our last blog update. So many things have happened over that time, so many changes to our family on this journey to Haiti. As we clear the dust off this blog we will commit to doing a better job of keeping you all updated on what is going on with us. 

Since early April, we have:

  • Closed on the sale of our home in Poetry, TX
  • Sold our remaining furniture, household items, and everything else that we can't store or use in Haiti
  • Traveled to California, where we had a refreshing time reconnecting with family & friends
  • Moved to Ft. Lauderdale, FL 
  • Started a travel nursing position at Plantation General Hospital in FL (Rebecca)
  • Traveled back and forth to Haiti 4 times to work at the guest house and help with visiting teams (Ted)
  • Emma got a job and is working at Subway in Plantation; Olivia is hard at work with homeschooling & Tynan is enjoying making good friends at church
  • Ana came back from a year in Germany, promptly got married, and is now back in Germany for a while 

 

Whew! I hope you can appreciate how our heads have been spinning a little bit with all these changes. But God has been gracious and has helped us navigate this unpredictable and slightly crazy journey that we are on. 

I am here in Haiti again (4th trip in 8 weeks) and this time Emma was able to come with me. It's her very first trip to Haiti, and she will be blogging this week about what she thinks about it all. Check it out on their "Em & Liv" page. 

Thanks again for taking the time to catch up with all our "goings on", and we'd really appreciate it if you could remember to pray for our whole family as we are now on the "homestretch" to our goal of serving full-time in Haiti. God bless you!

 

I always feel happy when I see Haiti out the window!
