Monday was the first collection day for our new loan project in Pignon. We were anxiously waiting to hear from Nick but I was also hesitant to want to hear from him b.c I was afraid of what the answer would be. Yesterday I sent him a message asking how it went and we didnt hear anything from him. Of course, no news is bad news but this time is so different because we got the money and then funded the project. We didnt get a project and then scramble to raise the money. So my emotional investment is nothing compared to our first project.
Lo and behold we just received this text from Nick, "Friends of mine. We've got the best news for the first month. 100% of them came to pay their loans before noon. The group that lives the farthest is the one that arrives first. They are doing business and we have testimonies."
I'm stunned. How bad is that? Stunned. Maybe the Haitians aren't all the same. Wouldn't that be nice?
