My mom is headed to Haiti...

My mom was a stay at home mom all my life. After I, the youngest of three kids, got married and moved away, she decided to go back to school. She graduated with her RN and a burden to help others. She went straight into critical care and working in an ER. She loved it!! She worked there a few years, and then decided to slow down the pace and work for a Family Doctor's practice. She has always dreamed of taking her education into the mission field, going aboard Mercy Ships, to help a Samaritain's Purse outreach, etc... Well, two months ago her opportunity came knocking. Our church, along with Sharing International, is sending a team into Haiti on a medical mission. My mom is on that team. They will be traveling up into the areas less visited by relief workers. Reaching out to those who have not been able to come down out of the mountain villages to get the medical help they need. I could not be more proud and yet more nervous all at the same time. Where is my faith, you ask? Don't judge me, this is my mommy we're talking about... LOL! They leave first thing in the morning for an eight day journey. My request is to ask all who read this to pray for their safety and security. Will you join me??
