January was certainly and very blessed and very busy month in Haiti! We apologize for the lack of recent updates. The Lord has greatly blessed the ministry so far this year, and we are excited to share everything with all of you!
From January 8-15, we hosted a team from Monte Vista Baptist Church from Maryville, Tennessee. The team worked hard all week to lay the foundation for the new bathhouse as well as helped us throw our Christmas party with the kids and help around the mission house. The team was such a blessing to us and also installed a new inverter and batteries on the mission house giving us power during the day now! We are so grateful for the team, their service, and hard work for the week! You were all truly a blessing to us and to Haiti!

All 4 Children’s Homes are now up on the new land! We still have some small finishing work to do in each home, but we are thrilled to have them all up now! We have also put up the bathhouse and just need to finish the inside and install the sinks, toilets, and showers. We will be working hard to finish the houses and plan to move the kids out into their new homes by May!

The month of January ended with another great blessing! The new well was dug to 205 feet inside the new compound! This well was truly a miracle, and we are so grateful to those who helped make this possible! The well will have both an electric pump and a manual pump. We will be building a well house to protect it in March as well as working on installing the water system for the entire compound. We will also be putting up 2 600-gallon water tanks, one for the compound and one for the community. We will have 10 places outside the wall where the community can come and receive clean water!
Although it was a little late, we had another successful Happy Birthday Jesus party with our kids in January! The party was a huge success as usual and the kids had a blast! We want to say a special thanks to everyone who helped by donating presents and all our monthly child sponsors! The kids got to enjoy another Christmas and celebrate the birth of Jesus!

We want to say thanks to everyone who helped start 2011 off with so many blessings! We have had a successful speaking trip here in Tennessee and will be heading to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on Thursday and Dallas, Texas on March 1st. We may still have some openings in our speaking schedule. Please email us asap if you would like to have us come and share about Haiti at ReachHaiti@gmail.com. We will be flying back to Haiti on March 7th to get back to work! Thanks to each of you who support us and help make this ministry possible!
