Off to Haiti

Through a series of events, I booked a plane ticket to Haiti on Tuesday. I will be going with Tim Barley, Jake Foster and his dad Steve, and Matt Pine. On Tuesday I received an email saying that Tim and Jake would be going to Haiti the following week. I happened to receive the email while I was in a meeting with some other teachers. Melissa happened to be online so I jokingly asked her if she cared if I went to Haiti with the guys. She asked me for the details. The fact that she didn't instantly say no piqued my interest and gave me a sense of optimism. I talked to my principal, Tim, Jake and Jay Scott, and within 5 hours of receiving the email I had a plan ticket to Haiti. We will be checking out an organization called New Life to the Children to see what we can do to support the relief effort in Haiti during the coming months. I will be in charge of filming and one of the stipulations for me to go on the trip was that I need to have a video done by Sunday. We get home Thursday night. It can be done! We will have some internet access while we are there and I will do my best to post some updates on here. Pray for our safety and that God would allow us to be used and give us insight as to how VBC can further his work in the country. We fly in to Miami tomorrow and the to Haiti on Monday. Pray!

D-Bo out
