In at Granny Bin's

Day 9 Sunday
The day started for me with a cup of coffee on the roof and some quiet time like I love to do, listening to the sounds and looking down towards the city. From the far vantage, you get no sense of the incredible destruction below. Church today was at the play area and people came from the neighborhood and ravine to worship, in Creole and in English. It was a great service, with Josiah leading worship and Ari with Phara singing along. Josiah did great in spite of the burning hot sun! (the last few days the heat and humidity have been on the rise here)
After service we packed up and then went for our farewell lunch at the Manassero's. That was excellent as usual! Then we said our goodbyes and got ourselves ready to get over to Bin's place.

By the time they found us over at MDL Granny Bin was tired of driving so Jeff drove one car and Luke drove the other back to her place! With no accidents, Amen! They had a blast driving the crazy streets of PaP and whatever shocks and struts those vehicles might have had when they picked us up are now totally shot : )

Bin is very appreciative of all the donated stuff we were able to bring down for her. She was about crying when she got the orange slices and all the other stuff! We just had a nice meal with her, fried chicken (she was born and raised in TX) and buttery mashed potatoes, green beans and a Coke with real sugar. yum! We have plenty to do here lots of painting, and general stuff that'll keep us busy getting her guesthouse ready.

Well we are getting settled here and probably will turn in early, thanks for your prayers!
