We forgot our passports! Isaac is on a taptap…
18 September 2007Wow, be praying for Isaac today… We came down the mountain at 6:00 am and arrived at 8:30 am. We started making plans for the day, to visit some children’s homes, then we discovered that our passports had been left in Mirebalais… 2.5 hours away! Our ride had already left and it would be impossible for them to take us up the mountain and back again in time for dark because they had things to do in town anyway. Well, we prayed about it and our only option turned out to be Gerry. He convinced us to hire a taptap for him and Isaac to go up and get the passports. I wish we could have done it some other way, but there weren’t any options that would garentee that we’d have them by 7:00 am tomorrow when we leave the county.
Pray for Isaac please. The taptap had to be push started to get going and it may have trouble going fast enough up the mountain to get back before dark. There are UN people that guard the road at night, so it should be safe, but it’s a little iffy in a truck like that one. He has a phone, and contact info for a lot of people if he gets stuck. I think Gerry and him will be pretty sore by the time they get there…
I am in Port-au-Prince at a cyber cafe with some adoptive parents to twins from Haiti Children’s Home. The Lord is watching out for me. Will write more when we get to Fort-Lauderdale.

Stumble it!

It seems (to me at least) that the two weeks went very fast! I’m praying!
