Greetings from Haiti and IDADEE

It has been a LONG time since our last update.  A lot has happened and we will try to catch up with the doings and happenings at IDADEE.

Since the dedication we have taken in more children.  We now have 10 children.  One of the children we did have was taken back home by her mother.  That was Magdarlie Jean.  It was a sad situation, and she did not want to leave.  All we can do now is to pray for her and her family.  We will update with photos of all the children within the week.  We've had a real "interesting" time getting the photos.  (Have you ever tried to coral nine two year olds, and one infant?) 

Many things are progressing at the compound.  We have started the building to house the chapel.  The following photos are of the initial work being done.

 

 

For the 2 days before the annual Kids Fest, we did evangelism in the surrounding area.  We had 39 adults come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.  What a great blessing for us as well as them, to welcome them into the Kingdom of God.

The next big thing is the Kids Fest held in August.  We had 530 children who came.  We had 70 leaders and teachers to help with all of the activities.   Close to 60 children made a decision to accept the Lord.  Each day we fed all of the children and workers.  The following photos show some of the excitement from the week.

 

 

 

 As you can see, we've been busy...building, caring for children, evangelism and Kids Fest.  Please keep IDADEE, it's children, the workers and the committee in your prayers.  The Lord has given us a huge responsibility and we need your prayers to help us adhere to His ways and guidance.  


Until next time, remember to keep all of Haiti in your prayers.  The needs are so great and the people so hurting.  We know the answer to the problems is the Lord.  He may not take all the suffering away, but He will walk with those who know Him and listen to Him.

Matthew 18: 5  "And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name, welcomes me."
