Greetings in the Lord,
We realize it has been WAY TOO LONG since we
have been on here, or posted any photos.
So, we will try and do an update that fills everyone in. Before we post the photos of the
children, we will let you know what has been going on.
Our school here at the compound is doing
well. All of our children are in
the school now. We have
kindergarten and first grade. We
have 4 teachers, one part time teacher, and the woman who cleans is a helper. We also have a principle.
We are in the process of putting a third
floor on the orphanage. We will
move the children up there when it is complete. It will be cooler for them, too. The 2nd floor will be dining room, offices and
storage for items, medicines and supplies.
What a blessing and time saver for us. We can now have more area for the
children to play. Also it will
make it easier to have large gatherings for Bible study, Kids Fest and other
things.
We worked on the wall and it is very close to
being all around the whole compound. We had a garden, but we also had a draught
and it killed our garden. Then we
had the horrible rains, but it was too late to save our plants.
We were blessed by Missionary Flights
International. Someone had donated
clothing to them for Haiti. They
sent us a lot of things for our children.
What a wonderful help that was.
Mr. Stan Curtis and his wife, Gloria, also helped us with clothing and food. Wills Valley church in Alabama also sent us a lot of clothing to help out. God has richly blessed us with all the wonderful help we have received.
We now have 30 children. Just recently we have added 5 more to
our home. All 5 of these are
girls. We’ll list them with
photos. The 6th child, also a girl, we just received yesterday, so do not have her photo yet, or her name. If you know of someone who
would like to help support these children, we would be very happy. Please refer them to Mr. Remy
Fils-Aime. They can do this
through: idadeekids@yahoo.com.
It may take us several postings to get all of
our children and their photos on here.
Please have patience with us.
Internet access is not always available.
Thank you for your time and for being there
for us. We appreciate your prayers
and support in what we are doing here in Haiti.
