it was amazing!

I was able to meet with Pastor Fleuridor today as well as his council members and one interpreter. The meeting was amazing and I was honored to have their time and attention. They all told me some amazing stories of God moving and also some very tragic and sorrowful ones of pain as well. God's presence was among us and I was able to give Bibles, a tent, blankets, and more. What they gave me was encouragement, priceless information, many prayer requests, and the beginning of a beautiful friendship, and I'm praying a successful ministry partnership as well.

After my meeting I proceeded back to my "position" of prayer, but the patients had already been prayed over, so I assumed position of pharmacist, which I loved. It was so awesome to see to the needs of the people, earthquake related or not, and be able to give them medicine and treatment for it. We saw a lot of kids too. We also gave out vitamins and food, as well as hygiene kits.

MORE people tomorrow for Dr. Bob and the nurses to see. Thank you for your prayers and please do not stop!

More love from Haiti.

I would love more comments - I miss you all. I can think of about thirty of you who would love to be here.

I'm just thinking that those sparkle jeans probably mean a lot to Jennifer. :) I really miss you this week--it's most consuming, and I breathe and eat prayers for you. I enjoy seeing the Lord work where you are and where I am; we can see the scope of his greatness that way. It's sunny this morning and I can't help but think that God is melting this snow for your return home. :)

I didn't realize you could leave comments! You news is wonderful and exciting and I am glad to be able to read about what you are doing. We are praying for you each time we join together in prayer as a family. And I do remember that I need to get Kori and Josiah tonight! Should be fun.
Blessings to you and everyone there!

I'm following your blog like it's the head-lining news of the world...but to me it IS. I'm so excited for you that you get to go and touch their lives on such a personal way. I can't wait to hear what you write next time. Thanks so much for keeping us posted. Bob emailed Andy a couple times and that was nice too. Tell him and yourself we love you guys and are praying for your safety, the people's openness to your ministry, the people there and for your safe return with their continued blessings there. I wish we could do more here.
Your hubby and kids are coming over tonight for dinner (no beef! haha), cards, playing and dessert. When you get back, let me know and I'd love to have your whole family over to give you a break. Know that we love you and are so proud of you. In His Hands,
Adrienne

I fight back tears as I read this Robyn. Both tears of sadness for what these poor people are dealing with and tears of joy for what you and the team and God are already doing. I am praying for you constantly and the more I hear the more I wish I were there to help. We love you Robyn!
Love and Blessings, Paul and Denise

Thank you for sharing these details. I know God is moving mightily there in Haiti. What great news you have already...beginning with favor at the airport! You're in our prayers!

Stacey said...

Great job, Robyn! I love reading your blog, especially when you include details like "sauna room." It helps me get a better picture of where you are. Keep up the awesome work of God, my friend. He must be so proud of you and the team. I know we sure are!

Thanks to all of you for being such a blessing to the people of Haiti. We are praying for all of you.
I saw both Korilynn and Josiah last night at church and both are doing great. Your husband was here at the church today and he too is doing well. He told me to tell you that he was bothering me but he isn't.
Take care, Debbie Deane

You know I am one of those 30!! I've been looking so forward to your blog each day...like prayer, it fills me with hope and blessing. I just know you are having a life-altering experience there this week, and with all of the thoughts and prayers being sent in your direction, I anticipate hearing you've moved mountains. We miss you!

Robyn, I'm so glad your meeting went well. But, more than that I am so touched about the story of the three year old little boy; I'm crying! I have always thought you might adopt a child into our family. He will not understand, but please tell him his American Nonnie loves him. Only God knows what plans and purposes He has for that young man. Just your touch and a lollipop may be the connection God desires for you to have with Him, but if it is so much more, may He bring about His will. God can and will do miracles above and beyond our imagination, whether He chooses to keep us involved or not. He loves that child more than we ever could! - Love and Prayers,Mom L.

Hey Robyn,
Glad to hear you're alive and well!! Guess you won't tolerate petty fights and tattletaling at work anymore. Not after what you've seen and done with those poor suffering children.
Please stay safe. You know everyone at work has been asking about you-adults and kids alike. They are all supporting you.
All your peeps miss you, but we also love you for what you're doing there.
Take care, Pat
