Haiti Day 2 (2011)

Wasn’t thrilled when we started the day…felt like a jerk with all the various stuff I am carrying. I suppose that is okay though. Met a fella named Adam who wanted to talk cameras for a while…it was fun but I was a little prideful about stuff I think. Mortify the pride in me God.

Felt like God was saying no to the big camera rig…I almost didn’t listen but am glad that I did.

Had a great day in Haiti 500 (Leveque)…lots of good pictures. We saw the house that we helped pay for. It was exciting to see the fruit of our labor. God had even arranged for the house with the address of 127 to be blue…God is amazing. It was good to see a whole town full of the Samaritan houses as well.

There were half naked nationals all around. It was a shock, but not as embarrassing as I was afraid it would be. There were people washing there clothes in the ditch beside the road. Many of them were naked. Water is a huge part of life here in Haiti, and there is never enough. Charity:Water could do huge things here.

I have almost wept many times today. Especially when thinking about beautiful things I saw done through the day. Help me to be a better worker God. I was not as active as I could or should have been.

It is my natural state to draw away from social interaction. I am learning to ask questions though. Even when I am not filming. I still feel a little lonely, but that is okay I guess.

Today was a great day. I was very moved to see the shelter results.
