So we packed up the rest of our belongings that now snugly fit in the back of a 5x8 trailer, and headed south toward Florida. We stopped by Wilmington, NC to visit The Hodges our dear friends there, and to meet with Pastor Clay of Calvary Chapel Wilmington. [Pastor Clay makes a mean Vanilla Chai Tea Latte Dirty]
We then headed toward Coco Beach Florida to spend a few days with our friends, The Clarkes. Our time there was spent watching God perform several small miracles in getting the last minute preparations to fly out completed just in time. We fellowshipped with some awesome people at First Baptist Church of Merritt Island and were introduced to people who share the same passion to reach the people of Hispanola.
We were blessed with an Inverter from good friends, The Simmons, in PA and quickly began to realize we did not have a firm plan on how to get it into the DR.
The Inverter weighs 83 pounds and Jet Blue has a strict 50-pound per bag limit. We were introduced to Joe Hurston of Air Mobile Ministries was willing to take our inverter into Haiti, although it would mean 83 pounds of water treatment would have to be left behind, with the Cholera outbreak we trusted and believed that God had something else in mind. Joe was very encouraging and full of wisdom, we prayed for God to work out this situation. Joe told me some things to say at the airport terminal and with hundreds of people praying we were able to board with the inverter in hand!
