Hello everyone. Well, God has been faithful to our mission team here in Haiti. We have had a wonderful start to our week. Here is the overview with pictures!
On Monday we took the team to a nearby IDP camp called Onaville. This is the largest displacement camp in Haiti where over 200,000 people live in temporary housing. On Monday we conducted a vision clinic. The team did great! We saw 80 patients and 15 of them prayed to received Christ for the first time. We also helped most of them with their physical vision as well. Here are a number of photos from our day in Onaville.
Here you see Jim with the men who run the Jesus Film ministry in Haiti. They work under Pastor Pierre and organized the clinic for us on Monday. We are so grateful. After the clinic, we stopped by the Onaville police department and blessed them all with sunglasses. They were very thankful. It never hurts to have a good relationship with the police!
Today (Tuesday) we stayed on the NVM compound. The ladies helped Cheryl with here ministry to local Haitian woman teaching them the skills of jewelry making and sewing. These skills will be used to help them make a living to support their families. The ladies reported that they had a ball. Today I include photos of the jewelry making class. Tomorrow I will show you the sewing class in action.
The men (and Tobye) worked on installing the septic system for the new children’s home buildings. The day was hot and they worked hard. There was a lot of rock and dirt moving going on.
And finally I need to include a photo of our alarm clock. The sun rises early in Haiti and our turkeys make sure that everyone is up. A blessing and a curse!
Thank you for your continued prayers. Keep it up because God wants to continue to do great things this week. Blessings on you all.
Jim, Cheryl and the Girls
