we welcomed Team October on Saturday. This team is made up mostly of people who sponsor kids at our affiliate orphanage, Freedom Grace Orphanage in Jacmel. They spent some fun time yesterday at our other affiliate orphanage in Freedom House Bethesda Orphanage in Port-au-Prince. This morning they packed up and headed up over the mountain to Jacmel to spend the majority of their week there. They will be doing work on the existing girls home, work on the new boys home, and do some general physical exams on the children there. Surely they will love these little children, have lots of fun, and do a great job ministering as they work. What we are praying for is that God will do His work in each one of them. God tends to be more visible here when team members put aside all of their distractions, whatever they may be.
We have already seen him changing hearts through the church service yesterday and know that it will continue!
They arrived safely this morning to find the new boys home (which the team is using as a guest house and the boys will be moving in after the team leaves), has no running water hooked up yet. This is going to make for more work for the team for using bathrooms and showering from a bucket. I will be anxious to hear their stories as they will experience a taste of Haiti that they might not here at our guest house! Should be some good ones!
Please be in prayer for this team as God does his work in them and as they travel back to Port-au-Prince on Thursday.
