Just a quick note to let people know that we are praying for financial support (and obviously welcome prayer support as well) so we can move forward with renting a house here in Haiti to use as a base. To get the size and amenities that we desire we are looking at about $5000 needed. In Haiti you must pay the first year's rent up front prior to moving in- not monthly like we do in the states. After the initial payment the lodging fees for teams will be collected and should be enough to pay future rental. Please consider donating toward this! It gets very frustrating having to unpack all that is needed to make a team feel at home/comfortable and to be able to host. Even more frustrating/exhausting is packing it all back up again at the end of the trip and taking inventory for the next group. Thanks in advance for your prayers and support for this vital step in our ministry.
(PS- if you do the math, $5000 per year comes to about $420 per month rent- not bad at all! Lodging fees between the March, April and May groups was about $1200 so we would be right on track)
