In just under 3 weeks, three nurses, two doctors and I will be heading to the small island that contains the countries of the Dominican Republic and Haiti.
As I prepare for this trip, I realize that there really is no way to prepare emotionally for what I am about to experience. The poverty of Haiti far exceeds anything I have ever seen, and my incapacity to help them is going to be overwhelming. It will be a life changing experience, and I am excited about it.
I also know that my focus must be on the things that can be done on behalf of the children of Haiti. AMG International has 2 childcare centers and a medical clinic. Doesn't seem like much, but they are ministering to hundreds of people every day. I will not be able to feed all of the people of Haiti, but I will be able to help a small number receive food for the time I am there. I have no medical expertise, but I will be helping the 5 medical specialists that I am taking with me to minister to the people of Haiti.
I am getting excited about how God is going to use me there, but even more, I am getting excited about what God will do in me while I am there. I will need the prayers of others as well.
