Today was beach day. We went to a very nice resort that had a great beach and had amazing food! Almost everyone got sunburnt so there is going to be some complaining tomorrow :P The water was very clear and I had a great time snorkeling in the coral reefs looking at the huge swarms of fish.
The past few days have been amazing. I have grown more spiritually in this week than I have in the past year.
A lot of people will tell you that Haiti is a bad place to go and all it has is a bunch of garbage, but the truth is that Haiti is a beautiful place and the people are very loving and caring. There is so much joy here and I can’t get over that through so much pain and horror, they are still the happiest people I have ever met in my life.
I have no desire to go home right now and all I want to do is do work in the villages and interact with the people and try to learn more about them.
I love Haiti and I can’t wait to come back here and spread the love of God in as many ways possible.
God bless,
