海地呢 Where is Haiti



親愛的大家

明天就三月了呢
這個月就要去海地了
你們是不是也跟我一樣緊張呢
應該是我比較緊張>||||||||||<

但我還有一些訊息和照片想和你們分享
請大家持續得為我代禱
你們也都在我的禱告中^^






很多人都會問我有關海地的事
海地在哪?他們說什麼語言?是不是前一陣子地震?之類等等的問題。

所以我想要提供給你們一些有關海地的背景資料
希望你們對海地也有近一步的了解^^








首先,先了解海地的地理位置




*海地位於中南美洲,在美國的右下方

*是個加勒比海上的島國,與多明尼加是相鄰的國家

*綠色那個就是海地囉!






                                                                 海地的國旗                                                                   



*海地是拉丁美洲最早爭取到獨立的國家

*有兩個正式的官方語言
1. 法語
2. 克里奧爾語 Creole 

*海地人大部份都是黑人(非裔)

*首都是太子港 Port-au-Prince  (應該是我們這次去的地方)














    海地是世界上幾個最窮的國家之一






      


海地是熱帶島嶼國家,比台灣還熱@@











海地人英文叫 Haitian,很漂亮的海地女孩,感覺他們喜歡穿的很鮮艷,他們的藝術品也是很鮮艷的顏色


















不幸的是,海地在2010年1月12日 
發生了芮氏7.0的大地震
震央就在首都太子港附近
影響了將近300萬的海地人




如今,距離2010年大地震已經兩年多了
但很多的海地人還是沒有家
生活品質並沒有顯著的改善



海地人民的生活窮困
所以人與人之間存在著
忌妒
衝突
憤怒
可能只是為了
一點水
一塊麵包
一個好一點的生活






請大家繼續的關懷海地
為這些美麗的人們禱告









哥林多前書第二章1-5節










 『1 弟兄們我從前到你們那裡去並沒有用高言大智向你們傳講 神的奧祕。2 因為我曾立定主意在你們中間甚麼都不想知道只知道耶穌基督和他釘十字架的事。3 我在你們那裡的時候又軟弱又懼怕而且戰戰兢兢4 的話、講的道都不是用智慧的話去服人而是用聖靈和能力來證明5 使你們的信不是憑著人的智慧而是憑著 神的能力。




我們以外國人的身分到海地
不是拯救
並不帶著優越感
我們的目的是

服務
學習

我們不要靠自己
乃是要靠神

要靠著神的能力與智慧
到他們當中與他們分享



這是我們禮拜日的海地會議
我們是第一小組:)








每個兩個禮拜的會議我們都會準備午餐
這天是我們小組準備的義大利麵!








大家對海地有進一步了解了嗎?希望我的部落格對你們有幫助
請大家給我一點回應吧^^



























Dear everyone,

March will be here TOMORROW!
We are going to Haiti this month!!!!
I am freaking out a little bit > <

Please keep me in all your prayers, and y'all are in my prayer too!

A lot of you ask me questions about Haiti, 
so i just thought i should give you some background.
Hopefully this helps a little bit:)








First of all, Where is Haiti?



* Haiti is a country located in Central America

*It is a Caribbean island country, sharing the island with Dominican Republic

*Haiti is the green one on the map!





Haiti's Flag


*Haiti is the first independent nation in Latin America

*It has two official languages:
1. French
2. Haitian Creole

*Most Haitians are of African descent

*Capital of Haiti is Port-au-Prince











    Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the world






        

Haiti is an tropical island country,
its super HOT!!!










Haitians wear bright colors!
You can see the colorful culture in their arts too

















Unfortunately, on Jan. 12, 2010
A huge earthquake took place around the capital Port-au-Prince
3 million Haitians were affected 



It has been 2 years since the earthquake
Many Haitians still live in camps
Many Haitians still have no homes
Many Haitians still live in bad conditions


Haitian people have little money

Conflict
Jealousy
and Anger

Happens constantly between each other

Maybe just for

a drink of water 
a piece of bread
a better living condition








Please keep these beautiful people in your prayers











1 Corinthians 2:1-5










   1 And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. 2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3 I came to you in weakness with great fear and trembling. 4 My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, 5so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.








We as foreigners to Haiti
We do not go with superiority 
Our goal is 

to SERVE
to LEARN
and to LOVE

We do not depend on ourselves
but depend on God's will

God's wisdom and power 
is the guide to everything we do




This is our Haiti Meeting on Sunday
 My group- Yeah Group #1 :)









Our group prepared Spaghetti for everyone!










I hope you enjoy my blog

Please let me know if you have any questions!!

THANK YOU * LOVE YOU
