Jessica, I just read your blog & must say that you are living what the Bible teaches us, to listen & obey when He directs our paths. I’m so happy that you and Brandon are doing what God has called you to do. I know you don’t get a lot of Thanks for what you’re doing, but God knows your hearts and hears your prayers. Just keep being a blessing to those you come in contact with. We love you and will continue praying for you and the work you all are doing. Judy & Paul

Reading your story, I was thinking of Jonah and how God is the God of second chances. I agree it is the times just “being” with people that is the most meaningful. Sheri

Wow Jessica, not many of us have the internal strength to bare our true feelings to anyone who chooses to read our words, or listen to us talk. What a lesson in “The Love of God”. My mind flashed back and forth from Mary washing the feet of Jesus, to the disciples sleeping in the Garden as Jesus prepared to give his life to save all of us sinners, to Job as he sat in his ash Heep and bemoaned the fact that even his friends had abandoned him. Your account of the day should be required reading for any one thinking about going into Mission work. We have encountered people who think you and Brandon are on an extended vacation, basking in the sun on the beach, drinking tropical drinks, and soaking up the rays. How wrong they are, and how sad it makes me to realize that most people have no other thought then to promote themselves, and amass as many things as they can while making vain attempts at being happy. As Jesus said, “what shall it profit a man if he gain the whole world and yet loose his own soul?.
Thank you for your words of wisdom!!!

(this is Danielle, not Curtis) Love you and miss you! i thank God every morning when I pray for the relationships in my life including ones that are far away from me right now because you are so right, community is so much apart of who we are. I know that is something that I took away from living in Haiti, missing so much of the relationships we had in the states and now that I’m on the flip side I ache for my Haiti relationships. Thanks for the reminder friend and for sharing your heart. Praying for you and that God will continue to place surrogate family members into your lives. hope we can catch up soon. you’re welcome in KY anytime!!!
