Thursday in Haiti

The GAiN mission team just completed Thursday in Haiti. We spent our third and final day in Onaville conducting another vision clinic. And we had a wonderful day.  We saw 104 patients and 39 of them prayed to received Jesus into their lives. That brings our total to 254 patients and 103 new believers! And when we returned to the NVM compound, the team went right to work sorting clothes for our thrift shop and continuing work on building bunk beds. They are a great and hard working team.
Tomorrow is our final ministry day and we spend it on the NVM compound. We will conduct a vision clinic and do projects on campus.
Below you see a photo taken of Onaville from our tent. There are over 200,000 displaced people living on the hillside. The second photo is a picture of hope. unicef has been building small permanent houses. There are now a large number of these homes in Onaville and more are being added each month  Each home even comes with a small area to grow a garden! And finally we have included two photos of young people who came to the clinic today.  We have people of all ages coming to the clinics but is it rewarding to help the young who are having trouble seeing.

Thanks again for your prayers. We will report in tomorrow after our final day of ministry.
