I have encountered the mighty beast

March 30, 2006

Hey, sorry, I know it’s been another week and I still haven’t posted anything but I really tries last weekend but I couldn’t because the internet was out at the café. However, this weekend I think I am going to Nicole and Pedro’s in La Vega, so I should be able to use the internet there.
Well, that’s see…this week….I don't really think anything that exciting happened. Our topic for lecture this week was Spiritual Warfare. That was pretty cool. I learned a lot. It a good thing we are having this class now too because that is a big problem in Haiti especially with all the Voodoo and stuff. I’ve heard some pretty crazy stories about Haiti. Oh, and there was something else that I wanted to mention. Please be praying for me and my team in Haiti. I was talking to people who have grow up there as missionary kids (Americans) and they said that they wouldn’t go into Haiti. There has been a lot of kidnappings and it is a very dangerous place. Now, don’t worry too much. We have many connections and I’m sure our leaders know they are doing, but that doesn’t mean that we are exempted from danger and as American, we have big targets on our backs. So…uhh…just pray.

Well, I am here at the home of Pedro and Nicole where I will finally be able to use the internet, and use it a lot. However, right now, I don't really have anything to say. Let's see...I told you about Haiti...the class this week...umm....well, it rained a lot. One day I when swimming in the rain (well, I went swimming in the pool while it was raining) that was pretty fun. OH! last sunday I FINALLY got to make guacamoli, in fact I made it for everyone. I almost forgot how much I missed it. And there was one night, I can't remeber which night, but Carry was staying with us (me is married so she usually stays with the husband, for some reason) and we took out all my candy and had a girls night. So look at the picture, there is proof, yes Bill, I AM sharing the candy. It was a really fun night.
Well that's all I really have for now. I think tomorrow we are going to the beach so that should be fun. Well I'm out for tonight. However, before I go. I will live you with one terrifying image. The monster the the Domincan. It's screaching cries can be heard throughout the night, stricking fear into the hearts of all who hear it and know it's formilliar call. It's beedy eyes pierce through the darkness like crystals illuminating a fearsome cave. It may come out of nowhere and dissapear into the darkness just as fast. No one is safe and no one can hide. Behold! The monster of the Dominican!
Behold it! Fear it! And for the love of God, don't mess with it! (Unless of course your not a panzy Dominican, in which case you can pick it up, be perfectly fine and everyone will still freak out).
