  Kenscoff Mountains, Haiti
Wednesday, June 21, 2006

Well, these past few days here in Haiti have sure been exciting. All of us volunteers have been assigned to 12 kids each day. 6 of which are babies, and the other 6 are toddlers. Yesterday, we took our babies out for a walk down to a grocery store about 45 minutes away in Hispanola. I was really excited because one of my frineds that I made the last time I was here drove up, recognized me, and gave us all a walk up a very steep hill. There are currently 3 volunteers other than Lindsay and I, and we are expecting 6 more to come within the next week to week and a half. Today, Lindsay and I decided to take some groups of kids out for a walk, and then stop for some candy. This was really awesome, and the kids loved it. We do get some wierd looks along the way though, but generally people are very friendly here. A few prayer requests for you guys:

1. One of my children disappeared today, and his biological mother may have taken him back. We are unable to find him anywhere in the orphanage, and that concerns us a bit.

2. Praise for the beautiful weather and environment that God created. It is so different from Canada, and so nice to enjoy.

3. That adoptions would begin to move quicker and that we can send some of these children home.

4. Praise for the new toddler houses that we moved into last week. They are definitely from God, and are so fitted to our use.

Well, that is my update for today. Thanks a lot and God Bless you all!!!
