Starting a Blog in Haiti

It would seem that people like us would be the first to establish web-logs. After all, we are the first "computer generation," growing up with Vic-20, Atari, Macintosh, etc. But, alas, we live and work in a country where the Internet is not exactly easy to come by (neither is electricity for that matter). It is very hot here too (over 100 degrees F. as I write this), which makes sitting with a hot lap-top a little clammy. Finally, we have four young children, which means that, after changing diapers, cleaning up pudding on the wall, and doing dishes, there probably will not be much time for blogging. But we live in a country that has been ravaged by hurricanes and earthquakes, and which has the lowest caloric intake of any other country besides Somalia and Afganistan. So that means that we, and the people we serve, certainly could use your prayers and support. We hope that this blog will allow you to gain some insight into how you can pray for us and the Haitian people. We hope also that it will be a blessing to your faith to see how God works in a place and with a people so different from your own. Bondye Beni Nou! (God bless you!)
