‘JESUS!’ What would happen if you screamed the name of our sovereign God at the top of your lungs in your street? Would it be met with equally loud yells to keep it to yourself? Perhaps everyone would just ignore the weird Jesus freak on the street? I know some of us have neighbors who … Continue reading vivian

camp
Even countries apart, it astounds me how God connects us in peculiar, yet pure Kingdom moments. Several days ago I got a Facebook message from a friend that the Methodist camp staff in Missouri had been let go. To be completely sincere my initial reaction revolved around the fact I live in Haiti and while … Continue reading camp

Sometimes I wake to screeching through my bathroom wall. Nope, not roosters, more human….it sounds like a plethora of teen girls, but in reality…I have lived next door to the Pathways boys for 6 months and when they argue over whose turn it is to use the shower it sounds like a teen girl-cat fight … Continue reading pathways

About two weeks ago I was holding a tiny guy at one of our partner's villages. The team was laughing at me, because it had already become known that I'm not a 'baby person,' yet kept getting handed babies. This particular time, I'd been standing in a group of five Americans, and I was the … Continue reading Watson

I know God’s love. I know the freedom and acceptance that comes with God’s love.

Visit me. I dare you. Come and see how the majority world exists outside of the American bubble. Outside of the ritz and sparkle of an entire country hiding their problems, suffocating in shame and guilt, and spiritually dead in so many ways. Come and see the beauty of a place that is dusty, hot...and … Continue reading dare

How is it that 3 months living in Haiti completely flew by before I knew it? How did I so easily transition to living in the majority world? How did it become home so fast? When did I become the girl that is freezing on the airplane next to a sleeping aisle neighbor, so I … Continue reading haiti
amazing love
My daily rhythm changes with the tide of incoming teams from the States. Team in country? I am occupied and my day revolves around them. And I love it. I love their enthusiasm. I respect their perspective of what Haiti looks like to them. I am genuinely anxious for God to move in them while … Continue reading amazing love

"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” [Acts 1:8] Beyond the fact that this is one of my absolute favorite verses, and there are plenty of people that … Continue reading witness
rhythm
Cars stuck in traffic. People on their way to work. Moto taps weaving through. A mother tugging her kid who could be walking faster on his short legs. Vendors setting up food and other items for sale. Toting water from the community well. Kids on their way to school. There is a rhythm to life … Continue reading rhythm
