Welcome to our Blog

We're glad you checked into our Blog. Our team is very excited about our trip and we hope you continue to follow our blog and share your thoughts and encouragement with us. Meet our team:
Joe (leader), Mary (boss), Bill, Kathy, John, Bill, Denise, Fern, Heather, Julia, Lisa, Rob, Carol, Tom
We will be working right outside of Port-au-Prince. The school at Rue-Frere in Petionville. This school is operated by Pastor Sannon and his wife. The couple does not have the financial resources to operate the school - never mind the resources required to repair the damage left by the earthquake and subsequent termite infestation. This faithful couple is struggling to make ends meet and is unwilling to turn children away.

There is vast unmet need in Haiti. Hunger, disease, and political unrest continue to be the norm. We hope to bring just a small amount of relief, hope, and love into the lives of those we meet.

Christ is Risen - Christ is Risen Indeed

We awoke to a beautiful day in Haiti - a bright and sunny Easter Sunday.  Pastor Jovin hosted us at one of his churches in PAP.  The church has a girls school attached.  The school houses 50 students from throughout Haiti - who otherwise would have no access to education.  The are provided one meal a day at the school.  We saw happy happy children laughing and playing - very much happy with their school

Rob was called on to preach today and delivered a powerful and uplifting sermon.  He spoke of the darkness that came over the land as Christ was crucified....and of the power and wonder of the Light found in His resurection.  Calling us all to be the light in a dark world.

    Looks like a very happy Easter service, as it should be! You're very fortunate to be there and share this experience with them. Its like heaven where all tribes and tongues will praise God as one.

    I wish you the best for the week. Happy Easter,
