handiworkings | Moments on the Journey
https://placesbeyond.wordpress.com/2011/07/15/handiworkings
Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. I wonder more how many care. Today, we stopped and put a blanket over one dead man’s body. I tried not to look at his face, but my eyes found their way there. Ive been thinking about that image tonight. It was a helpless feeling today. As our vehicle rolled by, we did all we could do- offered a little dignity by covering his body and said a prayer in our hearts as we drove away. Help us not to talk too much.

goodbye | Moments on the Journey
https://placesbeyond.wordpress.com/2011/08/01/goodbye
Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. Saying goodbye is the WORST thing ever. It’s like stabbing your heart multiple times, then pouring sea salt and Tabasco in it with a squeeze of lemon juice. Then you mix it all together and repeat. Each goodbye was a bit harder than the last. And who was I? I wish I would’ve prayed for them before I left. We had to leave quickly because of travel time restrictions. We got in the car and drove of...8221; by Au...

A place to call home | Moments on the Journey
https://placesbeyond.wordpress.com/2011/07/20/a-place-to-call-home
Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. A place to call home. Sunday produced a joy in me that will remain long after my plane departs in the early days of next week. It was a long-awaited homecoming for a simple family who share an intricate love, who have come to mean something significant to me in a way that I still can’t quite articulate. The car was filled with anticipation, smiling and pointing on the drive over. We pulled up and jumped o...

Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. We visited Jacmel this weekend. Continue reading →. Church nausea and a happy hearted afternoon. This weekend we took Plumpy and his family to church. Let me preface this by reminding you that this is Haiti, so nothing is just as simple as “we took some people to church.”. Continue reading →. Kinda like Sunday’s dinner. Back to the stories. Continue reading →. Step by step guide to {pretend} Haitian cooking.

a sweaty journey through John | Moments on the Journey
https://placesbeyond.wordpress.com/2011/05/26/a-sweaty-journey-through-john
Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. A sweaty journey through John. We had the second Bible study this week in Valene’s tent…it’s been such a blessing thus far. Of course it isn’t without its stories. because it wouldn’t be life here unless there was something comical and random that happens. Toddlers were running around, babies were crying. Peterson was standing holding onto my legs for most of the time. It was pretty much a gong show. But ...

beach dreamin’ and the blues | Moments on the Journey
https://placesbeyond.wordpress.com/2011/06/04/beach-dreamin-and-the-blues
Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. Beach dreamin’ and the blues. As you can imagine, it’s been a week. It’s about a 45 min ride from our base to the beach, and the fam was quite excited, looking wide-eyed out of the window. They hadnt been to the beach in a very long time- at least one that wasnt scuzzy and filled with needles and trash. Justin got back in the water with the other kids and I got Plumpy all wrapped up in a towel to get ready fo...

Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. And getting bitten on the bum by mosquitoes every time you go to the bathroom in your outdoor toilet. (true story). Not that we are complaining, I am just justifying why our blog appears to have frequent reports from new tropical locales here and there.🙂. Our first couple days were filled with simple things, like snorkeling and taking in the lulling underwater world:. It’s not too shabby, I suppose:. But I m...

turtle diaries and the déjà vu samosa | Moments on the Journey
https://placesbeyond.wordpress.com/2011/06/16/turtle-diaries-and-the-deja-vu-samosa
Nothing that you have not given away will ever truly be yours. CS Lewis. Moments on the Journey. Turtle diaries and the déjà vu samosa. What can I say? Just before we took this pic we had stopped at a cliff overlooking a cove with picture perfect water. Something caught my eye and I gasped- glory of glories – a shell,with little arms and feet floating at the surface! A turtle coasting along! So this jump-started my. We were having such a moment! I wanted to tell the big-bellied bully to go away but it wa...
