Monday evening, after Bible study

We just got home from our weekly neighborhood Bible study. We had six there tonight. Marko accompanied his wife Rose so that he could speak with us afterwards. Whenever Marko comes it's because he wants to speak with us, he's yet to be converted but at least he comes for the whole Bible study and doesn't wait until it's over to pop in. Tonight he needed to borrow bus fare to go to Port au Prince for his job. He's a guard at one of the bank branches in town and they are going to Port for a meeting. Evidently, he and Rose spent their whole pay checks already and it's not even the middle of the month. But, we were glad to give it to him. He actually had a hard time asking. I'm glad he asked rather than putting Rose up to asking. We don't lend money, we give it. We've learned that no one pays loans back and knowing how hard it is for our employees, if we start out saying it's a loan, we forgive it by the time next payday rolls around. Have you ever tried to live on $80 USD a month? That's a good salary but with inflated prices, it doesn't go far.

We got nice comments on our blogspot. I just have to remember to work on it and chat with everyone daily......that is how it works isn't it?

The wall is coming along nicely and as soon as we get up there to take pictures you'll see it.
Whoever it was that stirred up the problems and halted the work in the spring of the year, has gone away. We know who was doing it now. It's sad how we allow the enemy to use us when we should all work to see His Kingdom come on the earth.

The kids were great today. We had a good time in school. The day flies by so quickly that even as I'm penning this I'm thinking "Was there school today?"

Hot and muggy tonight. Need to get a cold glass of water. Until next time...........Carolyn
