Creole Classes

The Haiti team learning new Creole phrases from Madame Rachel!

For our Bolivian missions team, Haiti presents a host of interesting challenges. One of which is obviously the language. For the 1st time, the team will be traveling to minister in a country where no one speaks any of the languages spoken there. Lo and behold, thought, we found a Haitian woman living & teaching in one of the Christian schools here in Santa Cruz. Her name is Rachel & she has offered to give us Creole classes every Thursday night. The classes have been fantastic, & Rachel really has a heart (obviously) for her people, particularly after the earthquake. Thanks to her, the team will have basic phrases, numbers, bible verses, & key vocabulary in the main language spoken throughout Haiti. Pray for us, that God would help in our understanding of the language & for communication in general.
