Team Haiti-June 29

Hello again world! We have internet for the second night in a row! However, we will not have it tomorrow because we are spending the night at the orphanage. Just a heads up. And I am unable to post pictures because of limited access.

Today was another work day at the rubble school in Daborne. The morning shift was spent gathering more rubble from the streets to take to the site and the second shift was spent putting up the wall cages for the rubble. We had to cut our work time early because Tiga wasn't feeling well. Please pray for him. He is constantly working and guiding new teams every week. He needs to be healthy.

The evening was spent being spoiled! For dinner we had BBQ goat (YUM!) and passion fruit juice. After dinner, a man named Tony came by to tell us about his ministry. He is amazing and has started a fair trade coffee business and uses the money to pay school teachers that do not otherwise get paid and to feed and educate Haitian children. Check out his website at morethancoffee.org and buy coffee. Then as if that wasn't enough, we got to spend time with a new 3 person team from Vermont that is going to pick up where we left off tomorrow and get Tiga-made smoothies together. We also got to spend time with a local nurse, Jenny, who moved here to Haiti from the states, and worship together. Please pray for her medicine ministry here as well.

Tomorrow, we go back to the house we built to dedicate it, pray over it, and share the gospel with the family that will be living in it. Please keep our health in your prayers. We are dealing with a lot of sore muscles and exhaustion and other heat related issues. Not a super big deal but we want our spirits up to spend lots of time with the kids at the orphanage tomorrow. We are sad to be saying goodbye to Grand Goave, but look forward to coming back again. Thank you for your prayer and support.

Much love from team Haiti!
