A day in Haiti by a mission team member

We had an awesome day. We visited an orphanage that had 30 kids and they have one meal a day. There were toddlers to early teens. Before Lifeline got involved with the orphanage, the children were eating once every three days if then. The Pastor who runs the little mission just has a tremendous love for these precious little souls. The Pastor had taught the children to sing Happy Birthday to new words, We Welcome You. It was a very special time.


We then went to a small tent city that had no tents but shelter made of whatever they could find that had a lot of holes in them. We put up 16 tents we brought in our suit cases and we gave away thousands of meals. The faces and eyes were hard to see. We are going back to the same place on Monday, to give out more food and also to go with a medical team and we will give them the gospel. TV or newspapers could not show how it really poor the living conditions are. I will never forget this experience.

  1. praying for your team several times a day! we (americans)think we need so much, they (haitians) survive on so little. Helps put our priorities in line. May God continue to bless your work there!...Deana B.
