Our Last Day In Haiti

Hey Friends,

I don't know where to start but that always seems to be the case lately. Today was an excellent day to say the least. We started out by preparing for 300 or so people to come thru the YWAM base. These people were all from Port au Prince, some injuried but most were those that had lost their homes and needed somewhere to stay. Will, Tyler, and I spent several hours registering these people into the computer database and creating idntification badges for each of them. We only had a few minutes with each person, but most were very sad, lacking all joy. I can't even begin to imagine the scheer trama they are feeling. My heart was broken again and again with every person we registered.

As we spent most of the day doing this, we finished up by saying our goodbyes to those we got close to in the clinic. As I sit here writing this I weep because Jesus has given me such an awesome burden for this nation. Honestly my heart would be to pack up and move here but I know I cannot abandon my responsibilities at home. Tyler and I will be spending a lot of time in prayer over the next few days just hearing God's heart for what He would have Project Sixty-One be doing in Haiti. If we have it our way we will be down here a lot more in the coming weeks, but we want God's blessing and wisdom before we jump in head first.

Tomorrow morning we head out at 5 a.m for the Haiti/DR boarder, which is about a three hour drive, and then will be picked up by the DR YWAM base and head the 5 more hours to the base there. We will spend the day catching up on rest and debriefing and then will head home to California on Saturday afternoon.

I just want to say that God is good, I am honored to serve such a mighty and awesome God and to see His hand in this large scale situation has been another one of those life changing cornerstones. I think a piece of my heart will always be in Haiti and that's the way I want it. I want my heart to be scattered amongst the Nations and my hands and feet to bring Christ's love with every step I walk.

You guys are incredible, your words of encouragement and prayers are straight from Heaven and they bring me so much joy. Thank you for being the mouth of Christ to me.

Love,
Jacque
