Wednesday in Haiti–The GAiN team is working hard

Activity in Haiti continued today in full swing. The GAiN mission team in just completed Wednesday’s work. Today’s activity included a vision clinic in the nearby community of Tou’kiema and continued work on the new outdoor kitchen for the students.

We had a great morning in Tou’kiema.  After arriving in the big white bus we set up the vision clinic and saw 59 people before we left at 12:30. We helped many of them with their eyesight, including many elderly folks. But most exciting are the 9 who asked Jesus into their lives for the first time. God is good. Here are the sights from the morning.

Nate and Bob have worked together to design and start construction on the new outdoor kitchen that will be used to prepare food for the 350 students on the NVM compound. Today the cooks started preparing food in their temporary kitchen set up under a white tent. Bob and Nate cleared the site and put in the concrete footers that the containers will sit on permanently. And other team members helped in the afternoon by painting the containers white. The containers will be put in place with a concrete slab between them. And it all will be covered by a roof. Work continues tomorrow.

Again, thanks for your prayers. Our work would not happen without your encouragement and prayers. More tomorrow.
