First team trip of the year is a great Success!

God has once again blessed the people of Haiti with help from a wonderful group of people. This week, the mission was visited by different teams consisting of AMEN-a group of medical and dental professionals, 3ABN-the second largest Christian television network in the world, and a select group of other caring individuals that want to help in this time of crisis. Due to the hard work and sacrifice of all of these groups, over 1,000 of the Hatian people in Barbancourt and La Digue received much needed medical attention, including many refugees from Port Au Prince living in these areas displaced by the earthquake. The groups not only offered free medical and dental treatment, but also focused on educating the people in these areas by holding healthcare seminars based on topics such as parasite prevention, water cleanliness, and dental hygiene. The seminars were especially blessed by the reading of scripture and by the performances of two talented musicians Robert Rice and Joe Arview. The week was highlighted by wonderful fellowship and an outpouring of the Holy Spirit amongst everyone involved. Once again, our Heavenly Father not only blessed the Haitian people with the things that we could do for them, but gave us an even greater blessing to take back home with us. Lifeline is very grateful for all of the efforts of each individual who participated in making this week such a success.
