Food

This summer I've been able to spend so many precious moments together with dear friends and sweet children, sharing food.  In a place where fresh water and life-sustaining food are hard to come by, I am much more keenly aware of these blessings in my daily life! I love the picture of our need for physical sustenance and how it reveals a greater truth about our need for community and spiritual nourishment as well.  Here are just a few snapshots of life shared through food together this summer in Haiti...

Saturday brunch with the girls from the children's home (and a few little boys eating leftovers!)

Friday night movie nights with popcorn.

Gifts of fresh fruits from thoughtful teenage girls.

The best cup of coffee I've ever had, along with beloved little early-morning friends to greet me.

 

I'm looking forward to sharing life (and food) again with you all soon!  With much love in Christ, Jessie
