Thank You from Karen

Thank you to all of our HATS supporters, and to all my family and friends, for your support during the recent ordeal with my health. Your prayers and loving kindness sustained me through it all.

I am extremely thankful that I returned to Canada for medical help when I did. I feel like God has given me a new lease on life and I will walk in daily thankfulness to Him.

I spent a total of two weeks in two different hospitals. Angina was confirmed as my problem at the first hospital for which I received excellent medical help. I was transferred by air ambulance to another hospital. There it was discovered I had a 90% blockage of a major artery to my heart. This was taken care of immediately and a stent was inserted into the artery to keep it open.

A little tied up.

On the move

Free at last!

I am presently in Springdale, Newfoundland, the wonderful town where I grew up. This is the best possible place for me for a couple weeks of recuperation and restoration. People from my home town stick together and really know how to welcome someone back home. For example today they allowed their electricity to be off for approx 12 hours to make me feel very much at home. It did just that.

After two weeks of R and R here I should be able to receive clearance to return to Haiti – to the work with children. The children are asking daily for mama to ‘tounen’ (return).

While I am receiving needed medical care the work of HATS continues under the very capable leadership of HATS’ other director, Luckner. He is handling his own work and my work at a crucial and very busy time for the HATS mission. There is always a lot of extra work involved for both of us at the opening of school.

Speaking of school opening I will take this opportunity to let you know we have students who are in need of a sponsor. Information is on our web site www.hatshaiti.org. Too, contact can be made with Liette Wilson at Liette.hatshaiti@outlook.com.

Thank you so very much to people in both Haiti and in Canada from the bottom of my heart.

Please remember our work at the HATS-Haiti Mission is for, with, and about the needs of children.

God bless you.

I am sure having you "tied up" as you put it was the only way to keep you in bed! Praising the lord with you and will see you next week!

Hey boss lady – looking good. I'm glad you are on the mend. If your family really want to make you feel like Haiti home they should turn up the heat to 35C, then give you a computer so you can cook the books and have some slam the screen door every 8 minutes while screaming Mama, Mama, Mama!!
See you in 2 weeks!!

Karen, so happy to follow your progress – there is no keeping a good lady down and, when you recover, there will be no keeping a Mamma from her babies!!!
Wishing you a restful time in Springdale. Take it easy until you are completely healed!!!
The Lord has much work for you to do yet, so get well and He will work miracles through you.
Love & Prayers,
Maxi
Want to leave this prayer with you;
We pray that God's Blessings would be upon you
That His Heart would be near you,
That His Hands would work through you,
That His Strength would empower you,
That His Mercy would soften you,
… That His Wisdom would guide you,
That His Power would HEAL you,
That His Gentleness would cuddle you,
That His Mightiness would protect you,
That His Grace would fill you,
That His Prosperity would enrich you,
That His Light would shine through you,
That His Favour would surround you,
That His Truth would teach you,
That His Words would reach you,
That His Salvation would overtake you,
And that His Love would overwhelm you! Amen!!
"I Can do all this through him who gives me strength." Phil 4:13

My dear friend…I'm so glad that you are all fixed up. Nothing like letting the blood flow to make you feel better eh? Thank you God for all the support you are receiving in your "homeland," and for you to have acknowledged the need to seek medical care (a lesson for all of us to heed by). TRY to rest as much as possible. Love you tons
