This weekend I had the opportunity to go up the mountain to our Eglise Mennonite Eau de Vie de Pays Pourri (Water of Life Mennonite Church in Pays Pourri) along with a group from our Fond Parisien church.

Pastor Voltaire giving a vibrant message.
Here is the bed that Pastor Voltaire and I slept in.
There were some boards falling out of the bottom of the bed, leaving some holes.
This is the house we stayed in. It belongs to Jorèl, Pastor Jack's son, who has moved to Brasil.

It was nice and cool.

This brother is teaching Sunday School. He is reading a Bible Story from CAM's 101 Favorite Bible Stories.
They asked me if I wanted to preach, so of course I took the opportunity
Pastor Voltaire dedicating this baby to the Lord.
It is a blessing to see that most of the children that are dedicated in this church have a dad and mom that are married

Oktadine insisted that she carry my backpack. She also carried a suitcase for Pastor Voltaire on her head. Thankfully, she only did this for the first 10 minutes down the trail, before giving the suitcase to someone else to carry.

Headed down the mountain for home.
A part of the time, the trail was in this riverbed.
May the Lord bless you and the leaders in the area and keep you all strong and sure in your mission.
