Well... my DTS team is no longer going to the Gambia. God has closed that door and has opened another one. We will now be heading to Haiti come Saturday the 17th. I'm excited. God has given me personal peace about this redirection. I'm learning that when you're doing mission's work, you must be flexible. You never know what God is going to do. But his plan is always right and perfect.
And I know all our preparation and prayer over the Gambia was not in vain. God can do miracles and great things through intercession. I now have a heart for that nation and know more about. And who knows, maybe God will send me there in the near future. I do have a 5-year visa for The Gambia. :)
Come Monday the 12th, we will be heading to St. Catherine in Jamaica for a local outreach and will continue on to Kingston where we will depart for Haiti. Our flight route is a little odd, but it was a good price. We will fly from Kingston, Jamaica to Panama to the Dominican Republic and then drive into Haiti. I'm not totally sure what we will be doing or where we will be staying, but I think we will be doing a lot of earthquake relief type work. I'm excited!
Please pray for our team as we are encountering this sudden change of plans. Pray that God will provide the rest of the finances we need. A couple of the students, including myself, and staff are still in need of money. Moreover, pray for physical protection. The health status isn't too good in Haiti. There has been another outbreak of cholera recently. Pray that the Lord would protect our physical health.
