Welcome

Last week we had the blessing of welcoming a new family to our Bonne Fin family!  We are so excited to have Kurt and Joan Platter and their children, Reggie, Toby, Hadley, and Brenna come join us in our work!  Orrin took to the kids right away, and they were running around the yard and rolling down the hills together :)  We had them over one evening for snacks, and enjoyed our time together.  We wish their family much grace and many blessings as they adjust to life here.  So thankful for God's working in their lives!

Another welcome blessing in our lives here was the experience of a REAL rainy season!!  Haiti has been in a severe drought, after having gone through several rainy seasons with virtually no rain.  But last week it started raining, and pretty much hasn't stopped :)  Even church was cancelled on Sunday because of the torrential downpour...we got 3 inches by 8am, and it rained hard all day.  (Think blizzard conditions for a comparison :) ).  So we put on our coats, raise our umbrellas, wish for boots, dry our laundry inside, and praise God!

“God thundereth marvellously with his voice; great things doeth he, which we cannot comprehend. For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; likewise to the small rain, and to the great rain of his strength.” -Job 37:5-6
