Hi Ho Hi Ho its off to Haiti I go.....

Just when I think I have my head around all that is going on in my life, I get something new. This new thing I am very excited about. After the earthquake in Haiti I had put my name in with the world relief group at church saying I would be available if they needed nurses for medical teams. I got an email late Monday night and I am leaving early Friday morning. I am going for 1 week with a group of 6 on a medical team to work at one of the missionary hospitals in the mountains I believe a ways away from the city. They are still getting lots of patients traveling out from the city for care as they still have buildings and electricity.
I love watching God work and it all fall together even though I am feeling like I am scrambling. I got the email about 9pm on Monday and within 30 minutes had all my shifts at the hospital covered to free me up for the week to go. Then this morning I made a couple of phone calls asking for donations of medical supplies and now I have more than I will be able to carry with me. My original flight got cancelled but we were able to cancell and rebook one for cheaper! I was nervous about flying alone and with the rebooking of flights am now going to the airport with another memeber of the team. I am looking forward to a challenging and exciting week.
So please be prayerful for my team as we travel and serve in the coming week.
Thanks
