Getting ready...

... for another trip to Haiti and getting excited to go!  This trip does not have many participants but they are a dynamic and excited group and you can't beat that!  :)  This trip will be a split trip- some of the time in Carrefour and at the orphanage and some of the time in Chaveneau working with the school children and community there. We are working out the details and budget still but it sounds like we have a good trip planned!  Please remember to follow our daily trip reports.  We will do our best to get them done if/when internet is available but with the new internet service we should have a better ability to update.  It's always exciting for me to see what people write and to hear how God is impacting them on the trip.

This is "Doctor Moses" who works in a tent in the market.  He has no supplies except a blood pressure cuff and stethoscope but he opens up his tent every day to see those in the community who are in need.  He charges very little to diagnose, write prescriptions and order bloodwork for his patients.  We hope to help him a bit on our April trip.
There is still time to sign up for the April trip (April 21 to 29- primarily a medical group) which will be serving in Carrefour and Port au Prince area.  So far it looks like we have six people pretty sure they are coming which is great but the more people the better the trip!  So spread the word- let us know.  This trip is only $350.00 which includes EVERYTHING once you are in Haiti-  translators, food, transportation, lodging, supplies, etc...  People have until March 20th to commit.  Exciting stuff!  We plan to work some in a clinic, help a doctor in the marketplace, and possibly volunteer at the local hospital/medical center.  It's up to God but these all look like good possibilities for this team!

Thanks again for all your prayers and support.  If you would ever like to contribute toward our trips even if you are not going, we guarantee that we will use your donations wisely- to help people like the man above and others God leads us to.  We can always give you an accounting of how your money has helped in Haiti.  Send donations to Hearts United with Haiti  PO Box 55, Morgantown, PA 19543 or donate online on our website via PayPal (secure online donation).  ALL donations are tax deductible too!  God bless!  -Crystal
