That
our orientation time would be an educational time, a blessing, and an
encouragement to the team.
That
the Lord would open our eyes so that we might see through Haiti’s poverty to
the beauty of its people, a hopeful future
inspired by the children, and the tangible evidence of HEF’s faithful work with
help from all of its partners and contributors.
That
the Lord would already be preparing hearts to receive the gospel message of His
saving grace.
For
a wonderful sense of anticipation about the power and the work of the Holy
Spirit in our ministry.
That
the Lord would develop in each one of us a servant’s heart toward each team
member and our national partners and direct our attention to His plan.
That
the Lord would give the team rest and recuperation, a joyful spirit, and
contentment in Him.
Pray
for our interpreter and driver,
Ancy, that he might be alert and perceptive as he drives and helps us all along
the way.
Pray
for the broken hearts of team members as we come in contact with the Haitians
and feel their suffering – lives which are broken in body, mind, and spirit.
May we be able to give them a cup of cool water and share with them the love of
the Mighty Healer, Christ Jesus.
