The month of April has been another very busy and fruitful month in Haiti! We have been working hard to finish the new compound and have got a lot done this month!
We would like to share with you all some exciting news! We are so thankful for the relationship the Lord has formed with Child of Purpose Inc. Through this relationship, we expect the orphanage to go from a good place to a place of excellence. Darren, the founder of Child of Purpose, came and spent a week with us to see the work first hand. During his time with us, we were able to get to know each other more and also confirmed that the Lord has brought this relationship together. So Darren, from us and our kids, we want to say, “Thank you and may the Lord bless you!”
The Cafeteria and Water System
The new cafeteria has been built! We put the roof on and have almost finished stuccoing the inside. We have also added 2 large water tanks to the well house and installed the water lines from the well to the bath house. We have also installed the toilets and sinks for the bath house: pink for the girls and blue for the boys! We have also begun paving sidewalks to connect all the houses together.

Our RIO Team
We had a team from our home church, RIO Central Church in Maryville, Tennessee April 2nd-9th. The team worked very hard on the land each day and showed the Jesus film at night. They also spent a day in the mountains of Foret des Pins preaching at 2 of our churches deep in the mountains. In just a week, they were able to build custom lockers in all of the new children’s homes and build new tables and benches for the cafeteria. They also helped stucco the new cafeteria and dig the water lines. The last day, we spend time with the kids and took them out to see their future homes for the first time! They are all so excited and ready to move in! Thanks team for such your hard work and willingness to serve!
