Hello everyone!

We just completed our third day of ministry in Haiti. The day consisted of amazing experiences.  The morning began with team time where we discussed the importance of serving. We observed and worked with Children’s Health Ministry, where two amazing ladies worked in the community to provide assistance to children with malnutrition. The women had amazing servant hearts, and gave of their time and energy to make sure that the children get help.  The experiences that we had as we observed the way the clinic ran, and playing with the children in the clinic was indescribable. In the afternoon, we walked around the community and prayed with people as we met them. We initiated conversations and played with the children. We were even invited into a Haitian house to meet the family. We also took lots of blood pressures as we wandered around the community. When we took one person’s blood pressure, people began to flock to us for blood pressure checks.  We also were able to hand out some pillowcase dresses that made several little girls grin from ear to ear. The evening was our favorite because we climbed to the overlook, which is basically a church which was destroyed in the earthquake but the frame is still standing. The church was seated on the mountainside with an amazing view of the ocean and Haiti. The moment was so surreal because the sun was setting, and you could really see the beauty of Haiti from the rooftop of the church.
