David drove in the driveway with the new ...new to us.. utility truck with a crane on the back at 4 pm this afternoon. He had been at customs and assurance since 10 am. Nothing is ever simple or easy. Our broker had been working on papers for over a week and a half. Now we will wait on the plaques before we can start using it. This is the last of the three vehicles we shipped in. Glad to have them all here. Thanks to everyone who has been a part of blessing the mission with these much needed vehicles.
Meetings everyday. Trying to get school staff settled for the fall. We will be hiring a couple of new teachers and putting a new director in for the Morning and Afternoon Schools. We also met with Samaritan's Purse leadership to go over long term plans for their ministry in Haiti. They will be moving offices, etc to the lower part of the GO property. This will enable GO to open the Conference Center again early next year. NC Baptist Rescue 24 will also be staying here through August of 2011. It is great to see all the organizations working together.
I'm working in the Burn Clinic each day helping Susan while Sheryl is out for a few weeks. We've had several new burns this past week. We've had two toddlers come with burned hands. No one watching them close and they stuck their hands in hot pots of water. One 11 year old was carrying a pot of hot water and spilled it down the front of her. Pray that the parents will bringing these children for treatment everyday.
