Arrival of Ohio Team

Today a team from Ohio arrived to spend a week working with Lifeline. We are so excited to have them here. Some have been here before and for others this is a first time. After they got settled in we took them on a walk through our village and to the dam. The kids in the village were so excited to see new people to love on.

When we got to the dam we were saddened to see that Hurricane Tomas had broken the dam. Dirty water was flowing through it with great force. It completely busted through the rebar. It was a strange sight to see.

But we are grateful that no one was injured when it happened. As this week goes on, pray for the team that is here that they have a great week and that God moves on their hearts. We’re looking forward with anticipation to see what God has in store for this week! If you’re interested in coming to Haiti on a short-term mission trip and have the experience of a lifetime, email us at missionlifeline@bellsouth.net.

  1. I cannot believe that the dam broke, that saddens my heart, but I am glad that no one was injured! I miss Haiti so much and you all have been on my heart lately! I'm hoping to be back in August! I love and miss you all and am praying for all the people in Haiti!

  2. Glad to see that everyone made it safely. Is there still bad weather due to Tomas passing through? Is the damn used for any type of water treatment to convert into clean water? Oh by the way, Joe promised to bring home a monkey for us. Will that still be a reality? It's for the kids.
