Buckets of Love

 

Dear family and friends;

We have had a busy, but great start to 2017. We have been amazed by the way you have responded since hurricane Matthew hit Haiti. Thank you so much!

It’s been a privilege for us to distribute more than 600 buckets of love.  

As well as giving buckets and food to many people, we have been able to build a complete new wall along the Laquille river to protect Camp Mahanaim.  The wall is 8 feet high and 3 feet thick at the base with baskets of rocks under it. 

We have also been doing weddings. When the dresses are washed and the sun isn’t shining, we hang the dresses in our house to dry.

We did medical clinics last week with the Missouri medical team and they saw about 2800 people in one week. We also hosted our first camp back at Camp Mahanaim since the hurricane. It was a soccer camp.


Katie turned 14 on Feb 5th. It is hard to believe that we have been in Haiti 14 years.


Many of the young girls who have grown up in our Sunday School have now had babies and Deb takes special care of them all.


Thanks so much for your continued support and prayers and partnership,
bye for now,
Love Rod, Deb and Katie
