I received an email and picture from Don & Karen last night. I wanted you to see one load of our materials being loaded into safe storage. This is a real answer to prayer. However, there are serious issues with “Dove” - Don’s dumb truck and “our” transportation while in Haiti as well as the only way we have to take the materials from storage to the job site. Please make this a matter of prayer.
KAREN: Our problem now is the truck. On Saturday, he took the team to the Citadel. One the way UP… truck overheated, bad. On the way down, the brakes gave out. Started working again on level ground, but not real good. So, at the tourist market, we were standing there and realized the gas tank had a huge hole in it. Don and several guys on the team spent Saturday afternoon and all day Sunday working on the truck. (Had to re-weld the cage, too, since the lumber broke it in places.) It’s limping along again. This has been a real trial for Don.
For me it was an awesome site to see the lumber in that truck. God continues to supply and answer prayers. Have a great rest of the week. Remember the Men’s Summit, open house times at the Marietta church site, the funeral on Saturday afternoon and Sunday service. As you pray for these things pray for me as I prepare what I will share this weekend. Also, my mother remains in the hospital as we await more test results.
