"I mean business"

This month marks the 10th anniversary of Aid to Infrastructure; tomorrow to be exact. A decade ago, Tom and I traveled up an impossibly beautiful, quite steep, and inhospitably rugged-to-vehicles mountain to visit Samuel Pamzou's village. He wanted us to visit because his village needed healthcare. When we arrived on foot, we found the village-center community school with it's roof in the floor. That moment is when Tom and I silently committed to create Aid to Infrastructure and build a life together. Today, we're watching our adopted country burn. Literally. I don't need to post a news story here because you will see plenty in your news feeds. It's been important to me these past 14 years of being involved in Haiti to focus on what's right in the country and the good we can do; because it's all too easy to find reports of what's wrong. Our friends on the mountain are relatively safe due to their remote location. But it's foolish to pretend they aren't affected. Today I feel a dissonance between my desire to promote our new sponsorship program and the other good things happening in Piton and my distress at what's happening in the broader country. We have ATI family in the U.S. and Haiti. Those of us in the U.S. feel helpless; and it's hard for me to imagine what it's like being in country. Please keep Haiti in your prayers for mercy and anything that resembles peace. If a solution exists, it won't be a simple one -- and can only be achieved with the help of our Lord Abba. Please prayerfully remember the plight of the ordinary, law-abiding people of Haiti who are caught in an untenable, violent situation. Thanks for being here,
