The swami is in (Bryce)

Today was our last day at VBS.  For me it was pretty sad.  At the games station we did soccer and jump rope which was chaos.  I again was the arms of comfort for a crying child.  It was hard to say goodbye.  I will miss the adorable kids.  They are very innocent and open towards us.

When we first got here the initial ride to Pastor Josephs house was powerful.  It was my first time out of the country and what an atmosphere and experience to have as your first.  It was obvious on our first Sunday here that we were the only white people in the entire church.  Having to participate (somewhat) in a service that is in a totally different language was memorable and pretty cool.

From this experience I believe that my view of life in America will be different.  I am already aware that we are blessed with many things that we take for granted (running water, drinking water from the tap, trash pick up, etc) that here in Haiti are luxuries and many don't have them.

Shout out to Alicia and my family!
