Any who, I wanted to update you on our Haiti trip and give some details. Since I am short on time ( I am in between decorating two cakes), I will do a list.
- Praise the Lord, both of our trips are paid off!! We raised $2400 through selling cake pops, personal donations, and fundraising at church. Let me make one quick point, never put limits on God!! I have no idea why we do this but he will always exceed your expectations!
- We fly to Miami this Friday at 5:30, the 16th, stay the night and fly to Haiti the 17th.
- We return home at 11:59 pm Saturday the 24th.
- Our plans are to conduct two VBS of 100 kids each in mountain villages, construction projects, deliver bags of rice to remote villages, work at the orphanage, home visits, and share the Gospel any chance we have.
- We can only take our personal belongings in our carry one because our 2 checked bags will carry food and supplies for the orphanage.
- There are 50 people total on the mission team.
- We will attend two church services and have the opportunity to give love offerings.
- Have I mentioned how excited I am about holding the babies and playing with the kids?
- We will be staying at the Bethel House and there is an orphanage that was relocated here after the quake. We will be with babies and children up to 5 years old. I will try hard not to sneak any home :)
That's about it for now. Please, please, please pray for us. Not only for the mission team but the families that are saying behind. Please pray for Matt and our parents. There are so many specific request I can make but I think you get the idea.
