Exciting things happening at Carries!

Take a look at the Monarch Queen that has been bringing our things to Haiti from Florida.

Monday evening the Monarch Queen arrived from Riviera Beach, Florida carrying some very special merchandise for our ministry. There is a 40ft. shipping container which belongs to us with all its contents to continue helping with the earthquake relief. There is also a New Holland backhoe ready to transform our mission compound into what God is preparing it to be. We are EXCITED about these things. We were able to make the trip to St. Marc but not until Wednesday because their is a gas shortage in the country. We don't know the and's, if's, or why's about it. All we know is that it is next to impossible to find it. We did finally find it and we were VERY EXCITED to get to pay $12.65 U. S. to have one gallon of gas. We were fortunate to find two gallons. One for the welder generator and one to get us back home from St.Marc after looking at our container and backhoe that we were EXCITED to see, even from a distance. We are very EXCITED for people praying for us so that gas would get back to it's normal $5 U.S. Pray that we are able to find more gas soon and that we can find it in the pumps again. We are EXCITED that the paperwork is underway and Lord willing, we will have the container and backhoe in our possession soon, well, you know as soon goes in Haiti!

We are EXCITED that for our first full, five day week of school we had 99 or 100 in attendance every day. We are EXCITED that Wilckly is working hard to get the building we are putting up covered with tin and plywood as quick as possible. We are anxious to get the kids up out of the dirt and out from under the hot tarps. We are EXCITED that they have adapted to the adverse conditions without much problem. Shaina and I were EXCITED to have the children who have sponsors write thank you letters to the sponsors who made it possible for them to attend school. The kids were EXCITED to get their pictures taken to send to their sponsors. The children were more than EXCITED that on Friday, after chapel, they all received an MRE meal to take home, all 100 of them and the teachers, too.

We are EXCITED every time we remember what wonderful supporters we have! We are thankful for your faithfulness to the Lord and to Blessing Hearts International and its ministry in Haiti. We are EXCITED about the day the Lord lays it on your heart to come and visit the ministry in Haiti that you support and are such a necessary part of. Praise God for you. We are EXCITED for the day when Jesus returns and our work on earth is through! What a day of rejoicing that will be! Maranatha!
