The Wild Ride To Haiti Aid Live
The roof of our studio house blows off in a hurricane, us running around in the hurricane trying to recover solar panels...
Our drummer gets stabbed in the heart.
Our 11-year-old singer gets raped by an 84 year old man.
An American "Christian" steals the equivalent of 5500 dollars from our church mission,
leaving us for a long time stranded with nothing to pay for the ministry expenses...
People who we thought were dear friends and family betray us...
But Father in heaven has such a sense of humor...
people we thought were enemies get filled with the Spirit of love and help us...
The native who had pledged to sell us the land for the monastery totally betrays us...
but it all works out because another location turns out way better...
The Mennonites refuse to participate in Haiti Aid Live because we do rock music... especially BEATLES songs!
We nearly die trying to fight the Haitians from setting a nonstop string of forest fires...
And we realize that neither reforestation nor any other physical solution is going to save the world...
The 3rd-worlders routinely burn up entire forests in one night...
Not even the best hippie-led World-bank-sponsored aid project is going to compete with the destructive power of mankind's diseased heart.
The best we can do is to try to change their minds and spirits through scripture-based music.
