One the passions of our family is the country and people of Haiti. Since 2005 with Doug's first trip there this country has become very close to our hearts. We have formed many friendships and consider these friends family.
Haiti has for a long time been a country with great need. The earthquake a few weeks ago took it to new levels of dispair. We have a chance to join with them to recover and help rebuild their country. The believers in Haiti love Jesus in ways we in the USA can't even understand. I stood in awe a few weeks ago as I watch them praise Jesus for His goodness knowing that many of these people had just lost everything. Their prayer and desire is not for more stuff, but that the joy of their salvation will increase. Someone asked Doug, "Why Haiti"? He said,"When God puts a love in your heart you can't do anything else". What love has God placed in your Heart? What is your passion? As believers in Jesus our greatest love and passion must be Him. If that is true of you than you can't do anything else but live for Him.
