#STILLPALE

Today was a great day full of hard work. We went to Titanyen to paint a few houses for some families living in the village. When we were done painting the house looked bright and the families loved it. On our way back for lunch the translators started singing with us, their favourite song is 10 000 reasons. We sang it over and over again, each time singing louder. The people in Haiti love to sing and dance. I love seeing how excited they get when they worship, even if they are standing there holding a paint brush, they are singing about God, and worshiping him with all of their heart. After lunch we brought some of the milk mats to Lenault, Teagan’s sister’s biological father. He got one for each of his kids. He was so excited to get them and to see Teagan and Mrs. Van der Mark again. We went back into Titanyen to paint some more houses, some of the kids wanted to try so they painted with us. The woman that lived there was so excited to see her house being painted, she even helped us out. Our team worked really well together and everyone worked really hard. Nobody sat around, so we got a lot accomplished. After dinner we had another church service, it was a lot of worship. They usually sing songs that we know and its exciting to hear both languages coming together to praise God. So far I am loving the weather in Haiti. Although it’s pretty hot, I would rather be here then in the cold. We have two more days left and then a beach day. The people in Haiti have taught me so much already, and I'm excited to learn more. I don’t want this trip to end, but it has been an amazing experience so far and I’m excited to see what else God has in store for us.
