In the Office of the HCRM Preparing Today’s Memorial Message With Stanley Assisting Me

The little boy next to me is extraordinary. He is full of joy and happiness. His name is Stanley and he is a young-looking sixteen years old.. On January 12, Stanley’s entire family was killed. None were left alive but Stanley, who was in the street. He was hit by a motorcycle, but survived. Stanley has attached himself to me, and I am very happy for it. Here you can see him watching in the office of the orphanage as I prepare for today’s memorial service.

Back With Rood

My First Attempt at Teaching the Bible in Creole

The picture above was taken as I was loading my Bible into my travel bag.

For the first time in my life, I carried two Bibles from which to preach—one in English and the other in Haitian. Yes, I was going to attempt it! Or to be precise, I was going to read the Wod of God in Haitian.

Today I got to take my first whack at it. Let’s just say that my Haitian friends were very patient and generous with me as I read the Ten Commandments in Creole.

The Warmest Welcome Ever!

How can I explain? It was simply the greatest welcome I have probably ever received. The children heard that we were returning, and they met us with shouts of “Joshua, Joshua!” and “Pastor Doug!!” with songs and hugs. Amazing!
