As our team prepares to leave, i think we all still have the question in our heads, what is your story? As we look at each child, adult, mother. father, grandfather, and grandmother, we wonder "What is your story? Why are you here? What is going through your mind right now? Are you hurt? Are you sad? Do you need help?" With all these unanswered questions, we just pray to God that he watches over all these gracious people, and we pray that he continues to use his endless love to help these people through whatever difficulties they may be facing.
This trip has taught us so much; to be grateful, to have sympathy, that just one smile, or a simple wave can make someones entire day. We pray that as we return home, we will continue to pray for all these children, and keep them in our hearts. We have touched so many peoples lives on this trip, and they have touched our lives.
Tonight as we were praising the Lord outside, we prayed that all these questions would be answered. That we can somehow use those answers to help these people in whatever way we possibly can. We have so much hope for this country, as every time we return something has improved. God is here. He is with these people helping them through their hard times.
We hope that in the future, that this country will be in peace, and that the people of Haiti will no longer live in poverty. We pray for all of these people who's hearts have been broken due to losses of loved ones. We hope that their prayers will be answered and that their hearts will be mended.
Returning home will be difficult for many of us. We pray for a safe trip home, so we can share our stories with our loved one and many more.
