A base for Hearts United!

Here are some photos of the BASE for Hearts United. It is located in Carrefour and we have signed a 6 month lease which will end in the middle of May 2013.  Now we need to get it fixed up and ready for groups and get people registered for the Jan and March trips!!!  :)  :)  Enjoy the photos- can't wait to fix it up, make it feel like home but more importantly can't wait to see what ministry opportunities God has for us in this new area of Carrefour. If YOU would like to help us with setting up the base and getting the supplies we need, please go to our website on the "Wish List" page:  http://heartsunitedwithhaiti.com/Wish_List.html  THANK YOU in advance.  If not, we will "rough it" a bit longer, but at least we have shelter and we can slowly fix it up.  :)  :)  We are thinking it is kind of like having a Hearts United housewarming/shower!!

Large kitchen with locking cabinets- we need to put in a stove, small (dorm size) fridge and other items to host groups


The main/shared bathroom- this will be shared by 2 bedrooms and is located  between them- accessed from the hallway.

Bathroom #2- this is in the one bedroom- no door to access- just an opening from the bedroom.  We will have to work on that and see what we can do.  

HUGE flat roof for worship.  This is shared by all units on the property (3 others) so sometimes there is laundry and other things, but they will work with us and keep it open.  We MAY be able to sleep here in tents but we can't keep any valuables up there since it is a shared area.  

The view from the roof is really pretty- the mountains of Carrefour and the surrounding community.  

This is the building from the road- we can park behind this big metal gate so our vehicle will be secure.  

The steps to the apartment- there's a secure gate at the top of these stairs- off the landing and then you can continue to the roof from there.  We have the whole second floor and access to the shared space on the roof which is REALLY big!

The front of the house- facing the road.  The window (covered) will be to my bedroom/office/storage area (one room) and that little porch is my own personal one!  :)  I can't wait to sit there with my morning coffee and relax/watch the community I will grow to know/love.  If God  has brought us here, we will be blessed I am sure.
