Are YOU thankful........?
There are countless reasons for my thankfulness to GOD today. They range from the generic type blessings to the more
personal interventions which HE has done for me. They range from the everyday blessings to the spectacular things he
has done, does and continues to do for me. The greatest of course is physical existance and then spiritual life which
He gave me when I came to trust Christ as my Savior.
What about you....?

A Strange thing....
While we haven't registered any cases of H1N1 flu here, the pig population has died off considerably. This is catastrophic
economically for Haitian farmers as pig raising is a way to invest any extra funds they may have had accumulated. Some
pigs bear 10 offspring which can help out alot when money is needed they can sell off the piglets.
My neighbor
who raises bees tells me the has been a drop in the bee population as well. Rain is not falling during this period usually
seen as part of the rainy season. Crops of pitimi are drying up and in some places are a total loss.
Some
stream beds which usually have water flowing are dry and some springs have no water. Could these things be caused by
the El Nino effect? All the hurricanes have been in the Pacific ocean. Haiti is under stress.
Please
pray with us for relief from this abnormally hot, dry weather.

God is Faithful!!!
Well, it sure seems Satan was trying to discourage me-- the plane in Miami was delayed by 1 1/2 hrs. because of
a fuel pump problem. Then on our way to Dariol an SUV in the opposite lane almost ran into us forcing us off the road
onto the berm. Praise God there were no pedestrians passing by at that moment. If my driver hadnt had the presence
of mind to veer to the right we might all be in the hospital right now. I'm counting on you, Lord! Remember Psalm
91!
The countryside is green and fresh, but if no rain falls then the pitimi crop will be a washout. Pray
for rain!! The church service today was a real blessing. It was good to see everyone again.
For the
next couple weeks I won't get much done as visitors stop by, but that always happens when I first get back.
