In a few weeks we will all be heading off in different directions. Some of us will be returning to the States to continue life there, others will be returning stateside for a couple of months to visit and some will stay in Haiti over the summer. We wanted to do something together before everyone left. This past Thursday night the neighborhood ladies and some of their daughters dressed up and went out to a restaurant for desert. It was a gorgeous night and we had a great time together.

The goodbyes will be difficult but I know that God has a plan for each one of us to continue furthering his Kingdom, whether that be in Haiti or elsewhere. Ephesians 1: 11-12 "In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory."

After dinner us younger ladies walked around, thinking up creative shots and posing for pictures.
Taressa took most of the photos. Thanks Tares!
And this is my dear friend Andrea whom I will be most saddened to leave. Andrea has become a mentor of sorts to me; we meet once a week to study the Bible together and pray. We are continually reminded that we can do nothing apart from God. What a wonderful reminder that is! After bringing our concerns before Him we are left with such a peace. I will forever cherish those times spent in the company of Andrea :)
