From what we've heard it's been an intense last couple of days for Mom and Sterling. Their flight to Haiti was filled with broken airplanes, extended waits and shifting schedules. They were supposed to fly into Haiti on Monday afternoon but we got a phone call from them Monday night and they were back in Miami, Florida. Their plane made it all the way to Haiti and was landing in Port-au-Prince when a severe storm hit Haiti. They were ten feet from landing on the runway when the pilot had to abort the landing. Mom and Sterling said it was very scary as the plane shook and the passengers were screaming and praying. They had to fly back to Miami and spend the night in a motel. They said goodnight to us at 1:30 am and had to be back at the airport at 4:30 so they were going to be very short-rested!
Since then we haven't heard from them, although we weren't anticipating that we would because of no cell phone reception and very limited or no ability to call from the motels in Haiti. So, we are assuming no news is good news but please keep Mom and Sterling in your prayers! We are looking forward to their homecoming on Friday, and sharing pictures and stories of their time in Haiti.

Oh wow!! Were they able to make it home safely as planned? I have been praying for them both as they minister to those precious children in Haiti and also for their continued safety.
May the Lord continue to richly and abundantly bless each and everyone of you!
