A TIME FOR REST AND RESUPPLY

Luc and Rosanna are in US for a little rest at our insistence. I explained to them that even Jesus pulled away from the crowed in order to rest. With over 30 living in a small unfinished house and still no well drilled due to a drilling machine that keeps breaking, life is still the major struggle as it has been for the last 5 months. That they are doing as well as they are, is nothing but a miracle. Although they are both tired, they still have the joy of the lord in their life. They are staying in Fort Lauderdale at Luc's brothers, and I brought 9 crates to Florida for them, donation from people who wanted to help, full of bed linens and personal hygiene items. It is our desire to purchase and ship a substantial amount of household items to replace some of the daily living items that were lost in the flood in September. Where do you start, when you loose everything and live in a country where obtaining anything is difficult? Pray that God will provide wisdom and resources for what he desires. Pray that Satans hold on this country will be broken forever.

According to Luc & Rosanna the 25 orphans are OK just in need of more room and more supplies.

Luc travels to US in November

Willie Nelson sang on the road again ... and Frank encouraged Luc to pose by this mural in youth area at Derby Friends Church while we were visiting Wichita Kansas area, in honor of the 2,500 mile road trip we were making.

Luc flew to Kansas City where Gary Wright, Frank Penna and I picked him up, we then visited several people who have supported ministry in Haiti over the last few years one way or another, this was such a good time for people meeting with Luc most for the first time.

One of the most wonderful meetings was this one, with Mrs. Clouse at her home, she has helped with training pastors and leaders for several years now in Haiti. (These Conferences have been named in honor of her Husband Clint Clouse) Mrs. Clouse had never had an opportunity to meet with Luc, this was a God designed meeting, Frank & Gary as well as myself were privileged to be there. The obedience of this wonderful lady has had a great impact on our ability to train our leaders in Haiti.

It's not Christmas but these Birthday Party for Jesus bags are all they have. Look at the smiles.













Standing on the porch of the mission house under construction, this is home for now.

These gifts couldn't have been picked up any earlier or they would have been gone with everything else in the flood, God worked it out.

This family is digging out trying to get into their home to make it livable.

It's hard to believe this is a Street.

The flood waters were so strong they overturned these cars.

It looks more like a war zone than anything.
