Who would have thunk it? Li'l ole Chad Cole from Vilas, NC is going to Haiti to work as an EMT. Back in 1998 when I started my volunteer career in emergency services, I would have never thought I would be able to take the skills and knowledge and apply them in a mission setting 12 years later. My heart has always been with helping people in need, but I have only been able to do that here in NC. Being part of a Christian organization, Samaritan's Purse, I have been given the opportunity to go out and heal in two different ways, both spiritualy and physically. I Pray that I may be able to touch the hearts of those lost as well as heal those who are sick and injured.
So, as I prepare for my 10 day journey to Haiti, I would like for everyone to please pray for me and my family. The Lord has truley blessed me with a supportive family, who have always stuck by me and my decisions. This will be the longest I have been away from my daughter and wife and I have to admitt, it is going to be tuff.
Philippians 4:13. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. KJV
