4th of July

Just like another day in Haiti. While Wheatland Salem Church group joined other missionarries and New Life kids on a trip to a beach, I was shopping for lumber and electrical supplies. Nothing has changed, is a most of the day process. Although prices at a local supply store seem very reasnable from my stand point, they are very expensive from a Haitian prospective. Now you can imagine a smal pick up truck (it did have a double cab), 6 guys (temps in mid 90's and very humid) and 50 pieces of 12' lumber sticking streight up from the back of the pick up driving through washed out streets. Overloaded by any standard, but a normal site in Haiti. But as always, somehow it got done.
Before everybody returned from the beach I had a chance to assemble my sound equipment rack that houses controllers for 4 wireless microphones that were donnated by Wheatland Salem Church. We were able to use the mics during the Divotional in the evening. Pastor was praising God for the gift, since back in January he made a drawing of a system that He was praying for. The only missing componenets are the two speakes that are coming on the School Bus and the system will be exacly as he drew up. What a Joy and Blessing to listen to the kids sing in english. They know so many songs, it absolutely amzing.
Rene and Frenzy were on the job all day as well working on several projects. It looks like Franzy's foot is finly getting better, he had a pair of bots on yesterday. It was so great to see both of their smiling faces again!
Today is a work day for all. I will be starting on the 3 sets of bunk beds.
