After lunch we went to the village of Titanyen. We split into two groups and were able to walk through the village and pray for the people in their homes. Some were belivers and some were not. We were able to hand out bibles and some of the pamper kits for the women. The people were very friendly and given their living conditions it is hard to see how.
One of the houses we visited was built by the Samaritan's Purse. In the house was a family where two 10 day old twins were living. We were able to pray for the babies and the mother. This was a special treat for me.
While walking through the village I heard someone speaking with a southern accent. I wanted to see who it was and as it turned out it was some men from the NC Baptist Men Relief organization. One of the men had actually attended Calvary in the past and lives in Yadkin county. It was a pleasure to meet these men.
We then headed back to the Mission of Hope and a good dinner. After dinner we went to church. What a service that was. It lasted from 5 to 8 pm! We were all singing songs in Creole. Meri Saysen. Thank you Lord.
Quiet a day in Haiti. Eveyone is doing fine. Thanks for all your prayers.

Abel Duliep was in my office when I was reading the post. I asked him what "meri saysen" meant. He said he didn't know. I said maybe it's merci...as in thank you. And he said, OOHHHH MERCIE SEIGNIEUR!!! THANK YOU LORD! ;)
