Haiti Missions Trip Day 3

Day 3 began the same way day 2 started with breakfast followed by a devotional by our brother Nolan.  Soon after our devotional we had a study session with the students of the training center. The subject at hand was the “Inductive Bible Study.” It was a great opportunity for us to be able to share a little of our knowledge on the subject with them and how important this training is since they are just  beginning their 3 years here at the Haiti Bible Training Center. 

After the session with the students we got back to work on the benches and the water heater platform, we completed one of the benches and started taking apart another one, of course we were careful to save the screws as we took them out because, we can’t just run to the hardware store and get more, There isn’t a “Home-depot “ here plus there’s a strike and the stores are not open. There was a lot of talk of riots that were supposed to happen but its been really quite. Actually there’s little traffic on the streets since there’s is no gas in the island, literally no gas. Thankfully, the Lord prompted Pastor Brian to have the guys from the training center fill 30 5 gallon jugs with gasoline before they ran out and that’s what they have been using to move around town.

While we were in class with the students the ladies were already hard at work moving things around and reorganizing the tool cabinet and getting ready for VBS. When the time came to let the kids in, they were ready and things went smooth as could be, it was obvious that the children had a lot of fun. They learned about Joseph and his visions, they had games and snacks and just had a great time with them. The first day of VBS was a success.

Evening came and we gathered to have dinner and the evening devotional by Pastor Brian, directly after that Pastor Bob had a time with the students on “The Character of a Servant”. By then it was getting late so we shared our experiences and how God spoke to us during the day and lights out. The morning and the evening was the third day.
