missions testimonies Paul and Christie Tanner went to Haiti September 25 - October 2The Trip of My Life!
Thanks to all of those who prayed and donated to make this trip a huge success. Christie and I will be forever changed by what we experienced in Haiti. May we never forget how blessed we are as a nation and as individuals.
... Safe flight. Baggage claim is utter chaos. Finally collected what we thought were all our bags and headed a few hundred yard through pushing and jockeying "helpers" hoping to earn a dollar... Headed up the mountain in darkness. NEVER had a ride like this. Road ended and turned into rock and dirt... I walked outside just in time to witness the sun rising between two mountains and shining on a poor village surrounded on all sides by paradise. Pictures can't come close and I shed a few tears just taking it all in. Huts dot the hillsides mixed in with partially erected cement structures... This is the house built up nect to an existing 10 x 10 hut (look through pictures and see them side by side) The family has 4 adults and at least 8 kids...
