The last few weeks of my time in Haiti passed in a blur. I was out of my regular routine and trying to finish my "to do" list and enjoy some time with friends. One week I completely forgot it was Tuesday and missed ladies Bible study. The following Sunday the Pastor's wife asked if I would be coming the upcoming week because it was one of the ladies birthdays and she wanted to organize a small party for her. I agreed to try my best to remember. I arrived early at the school and noticed that A LOT of people were milling around and they all seemed to be very busy and no one would tell me what they were doing. I started to get pretty suspicious... shortly after I discovered that the entire church was throwing a surprise going away party for me.

It was a Haitian party so of course there was LOTS of food! |

And because you can never had too many parties, the Saturday night before I left, Randy and Karen organized another going away party for me.

Overall I feel very blessed and loved. I will miss my community in Haiti, I was blessed to make some great friends who supported and loved me during my time in Haiti. You will all continue to be in my prayers.
