Bargain Sale March 1-3, 2012

Haiti January 20, 2012
Last night was a hard night for some. There are all kinds of strange sounds here that we don’t hear at home, like donkeys, mules, roosters, dogs, and people yelling at all hours. You never know what you're going to hear....
Haiti January 19, 2012
Today was the first day I did not have to go to Port, and it was a most relaxed day. After breakfast Karl had devotion ready for us--I have to say it is one of the best parts of the day. Then he went over a few things that...

Haiti January 11, 2012
I guess I will start off with a funny story. This morning when I woke up around 7:00, I couldn’t find my toothpaste or my toothbrush, so I asked Chuck if he had an extra one. He found a toothbrush that I had left here, but...
