Note from Chuck : Jun 23
Want to get an update in this morning before we started working. Some of you have heard that Sunday was an eventful day and it was. I wanted to make sure that the right story was going around, so here it is. After a good church service and a perfect day at the beach we were traveling back to the mission and turning the corner to the mission house and a young man on a scooter decided to pass the bus on the left side as we were turning. He hit the bus twice, hit the ground three times and landed on the side of the road. I sent the bus and the kids to the mission house and a hand full stayed behind. After medical supplies showed up he was bandaged up and then taken to the hospital by a group of us. (The hospital was a real experience and a note for some other time) The young man is fine and all his medical was taken care of and we gave him some money to cover him so he could take time off to get better. Everyone that was involved did a great job of taking care of what needed to be taken care of and for what happened it turned out very well.
The group from Lebanon is doing great! We started house number 6 and Boss asked if we could all stay another week. (6 house in two weeks is unheard of down here and with the help of the 2 groups that is what is going to happen)
Containers: We have been in contact with the Port and our containers area cleared we hope to have them on Thursday so we can use the some of the group to help unload. Please pray that this happens!
The children are all doing so very well. Abby is almost walking! Daniella is playing and singing! All the others are doing very well and some of them should be moving to a new home at the Children’s home soon.
Was supposed to meet with the Mayor of Jacmel put the weather the last couple of days has been very rainy in the evening. Tina and I will try to meet up with him again today. We have plans for the new clinic and school and want to work more on the Tent Camp with him. This is very important that this relationship stays very close, so please pray that it will.
Pray for Tina! She is very tired and needs God’s energy to keep going. We all sat down last night and talked about the mission and the kids and adults got a chance to hear Tina’s story and ask questions. Not only did the kids ask question but had some great comments and discussion about what was going on in Haiti.
Well it is 5:30 am and need to get ready to go to the job site. We have 2 houses to finish and we should rap that up today. God Bless everyone that has made all of this possible.
For the Love of Haiti
