Lots of news this week, two years ago Haiti built a new university between Cap Haitian and Wanamete. There is also a large student housing village, and probably 300 homes that were built to house people from the Port au Prince earthquake. Every time I went past the area I thought, WOW, what a place for a home church, and it would be neat if you could get a job at the university with all the possibilities for sharing the gospel. Two weeks ago Carol and I prayed and I went to the university and asked to speak with the president and I got an interview.
I proposed to teach a class on Introduction to Aviation and Building Maintenance. They agreed to start an aviation class and gave us free housing in the midst of the student village. We moved in Thursday.
Everything you need is in the student village and for the first time ever in Haiti, we have power 24 hrs. per day. We’ve met our neighbors and they’ve all been very nice to us old people. Weren’t sure how they would feel about old white people moving in among them. Already talked to one young man about having a house church. He was very excited he said that after he moved out there he was disappointed to find there was no church.
We went for a walk last night all through the neighborhood. There is a huge elementary school there as well. We just pray for God to use us for His glory. Thank you so much for your prayers.
