Being a teacher is a large part of my identity. I love being able to pour out my life in the hopes of seeing children grow and reach their greatest potential. Working in a public school has been a struggle as I am often conflicted between doing the "job" and sharing the ultimate hope I know in Christ. I am eager to step outside of my box and see what the Lord has in store beyond my little New Hampshire life.
So, here's the plan- spend one month in Haiti teaching and learning at the Christian Light School and Orphanage in Port Au Prince. My hope is that I might be able to share the love and hope of Christ with the people I meet there, although I have a sneaky suspicion that the Lord will use this experience and the people I meet to teach me far more that I could ever hope to share in return!
As a way of sharing what the Lord is doing in Haiti, my goal is to keep updating this blog regularly during this summer's adventure. Thanks for sharing in this journey with me! In Christ, Jessie
