Update

Thank you so much for your prayers. My dad was able to get up to Minnesota by early afternoon yesterday to see his dad, which everyone was really grateful for. My mom and Krista were going to drive up yesterday and hoped to get there by nighttime. We're so glad they were able to get home and see my Grandpa, who is still hanging on, and be with the family. We wanted to jump on the plane with them! It's definitely tough being away when things are going on in our families that we want to be there for. But it's definitely cool to experience the closeness we can have with God when things are hard. His comfort is unlike anything else. These are a few more pictures from their visit. My dad is standing with his translator, Misye Osias, who gave the sermon in Creole on Sunday as my dad preached in English. It was really neat seeing my dad preach in our church and have it translated so everyone could understand. We have a video clip of it, but it's too big too upload so we will have to show you when we are home! The street picture shows a view of Cap Haitian from the roof of a house of a friend on the rainy day my parents arrived. It was a sea of people and umbrellas. Below is a picture Chris tried to sneakily take during church! And the last picture below is Chris helping Anna with the pinata she made for her friends for Christmas! Thanks again for praying and reading. Have a great week.
