Back in October when J Sniff and Adam Provance were here, they spent part of a day at Cowman International School doing basketball lessons with the students. It's been a while since then, but the kids here are STILL talking about "when the coaches were here." I've been wanting to show you these pictures for a while, but haven't had internet access to be able to upload them until now. So, here they are!
There are lots of visiting teams here in Haiti right now. The hot weather of the summer has past and temperatures are very comfortable now. I'm amazed at all the different projects I see going on... Farming projects... house building (Mark L, the house your team built in October looks great!), education projects, well drilling and repairing, women's conferences, and much more.
I think the presence of these teams is enormously encouraging. Thank you to all of you who have been here to serve on a team and to all of you who have supported a team financially or otherwise. What's especially inspiring are the projects that aim to truly partner with and empower Haitians so that they can continue the work themselves once the teams have gone home.

ReplyDeleteYour message and photos are touching. On this evening before Thanksgiving, I am also reminded of 2 Corinthians 9:8. According to the New Living Translation, "And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others."
