Broken Down

Remember how they say things always get worse before they get better…
I am laying in my bed napping this afternoon. I wake up hearing what sounds like all of Canaan marching up the hill behind our house. Well, here goes all these Canaanites and Sister Gladys up the hill. At this point I just think it’s another one of her get together’s, maybe some prayer time. How wrong I was.
Canaan has about 90 acres of land, none of which is fenced in. Sister Gladys and Pastor Henry just feel safe and feel no reason to fence us in. Well lately we have been getting more and more of what we call squatters. People who are slowing moving onto our land and building houses. They keep getting closer and closer.
I am not exactly sure what happened to start this chain of events today, but clearly something set SG off. So she marched up the hill and more or less told all the people to get off of our land or else. There was a new house being built way too close, so she decided to break it down….not even kidding. She also said, she would break more tomorrow!
They really are not too thrilled about it…We can hear them screaming from our house. Clearly Canaan does not have our land marked off, so I don’t really think these people knew. However, at this point they are throwing a fit. I guess I would be too if I just got kicked out of my house, even though I was on someone else’s land.
They have been screaming for quite some time…really not too impressed. Just before dinner they started throwing rocks at the boys dorm. So SG went over and unleashed. Then they started throwing rocks towards her. Sister Gladys and Pastor Joel have been standing guard for almost 2 hours now. One of the ladies pushed Pastor Joel and tried to fight him, but Sister Gladys got in between them. That woman is afraid of nothing! Love her!
Now the UN have showed up and hopefully are stepping in. It is really dark outside, so I am not sure what is going on at the moment. Just pray for us! Once everyone goes to bed, there is no telling what these crazy people might try! I am sure there will be people up all night guarding, but you never know around here. TIH, you just can’t make this stuff up!
