3 weeks and counting!

Our team is preparing for our journey to Haiti beginning on Ocotober 30, 2011.  We've been getting our immunizations, preventive medications and mosquito nets!  We've also been collecting donations to bring along for the people of Haiti. 


Our team has been assigned to work in La Tremblay. The church there was damaged too much to repair and is being rebuilt.  Although we don't know exactly what we will be doing since it is an ongoing project, we will most likely be working on building walls and starting construction on the roof.  We will be led in the project by local Haitian professionals who are able to be employed by our project fee and matching funds from UMCOR!  We are also planning to have some fun with the children by providing VBS!


Please pray for us as we prepare to go and serve with willing hearts!

Check out the Google map of La Tremblay and our planned worksite!
