Final Hello from Haiti!

Alo!

Well, today is the last day we are in Haiti. It was been a wonderful trip and
we have both grown so much! On Monday we went to the Market, which for Whitney
was a very intense experience - especially when the local "crazy guy" professed
his love to her! haha - Pastor Joe made quick work of him however and told us
that "the crazy guy knows I will lay hands on him!" We also did three more
water tests on Monday and the tests were a success in the sense that they
worked, but the results could be considered a failure - just about every
bacteria present is in their well and house water! We have also spent a lot of
time playing with the kids and spending time with them. Whitney has found her
"little man" whom just may be riding back with her in her suitcase! Allen's
soccer skills have definitely not improved any - but the kids seem to get
amusement out of him trying and failing miserably! Pastor also showed us the
land where he is going to build a school once he gets enough money. And this
morning, we saw the land that he rents and farms. Since we no longer have
church services as night, we have been able to marvel at God's nighttime
handiwork - the stars! You never knew there were so many! It is hard to
believe that we are going home tomorrow! Thanks to everyone for your prayers
and support - God has definitely been present during this experience.

In Christ,
Whitney and Allen
