Below is a link to the blog of one of the missionaries I interned with this summer. It's been a rough week for them. Please keep the team in your prayers.

Friday I leave for Haiti. Confession time here....I'm scared. More scared than I was about either of my trips to Africa. Last night, I read back through my prayer journal and I was surprised by the similarity between how I feel now about Haiti and how I felt when I wrote some of my early journal entries in Africa. One entry in particular struck me. It was a simple prayer then and it's nearly the same prayer my hearts been praying now.
"I am not adequate. I do not know the words I need to say to the people here. I want to help the work not hinder it , but I am very afraid. Lord, tell me what to say. Speak through me. I am being forced out of my comfort zone. I know that's good, but it's also scary. I'm not good at speaking to people, but you've used people less willing than me and I know you can make me useable too." -June 6, 2005

I know God will use you while in Haiti! We'll be praying for you. Oh yeah, and have fun! :)
I love how on your links its just "He's a freaking moron" Instead of "Has nice hair that frizzes in the tropical heat" "Stud" or "" nevermind I think it works the way it is.
