Happy Thanksgiving to you!
As I count my blessings this year, I am overwhelmed with all that God has provided.
Family, friends, acquaintances who have become friends and those I've just recently met, I wish you a beautiful day today. As we enter yet another holiday season, please take time to love, to be with those you love and like! Life passes too quickly, and in reality all we really know we have is just today.
I am thankful to be from America. Oh, how I hope you realize it should not be taken for granted. We have so much to be thankful for today.
I have one story to share with you about living in Haiti on America's Thanksgiving holiday:
Our school secretary brought me a small container of sweetened milk and presented it to me today as a thanksgiving gift. To think she went out and spent her very hard earned money on a gift for me overwhelmed me emotionally; so very humbling.
Thank you to all those who have supported me and continue to support me through prayer, emotional support, and financial support. Words cannot express what it means to me.
Now, get off your computer and go spend time with someone you care for, or go meet someone new! Again, Happy Thanksgiving.
Love,
Marylee
Purpose of this blog
Personal missionary work as a coordinator for the college students who graduated from Institution Univers in Ouanaminthe, HAITI.
I act as a liaison for those currently in college and their sponsors, until the students have all graduated, whether in USA, Haiti or the Dominican Republic.
As well, I encourage those who have graduated from college but have not yet returned to Haiti, to return to fulfill the purpose of their education, for themselves, their families, their country and most importantly, for God.
