We have huge news from Haiti today – an answer to prayer. The final container that has been stuck in customs for a looong time was released today. They have all the contents (which includes the main orphanage building, roofs, windows and other items for the smaller buildings) in storage at the Lifeline school next to our property. Praise the Lord! The team also got the walls up for the 2nd agriboard building that will be the other side of our hospitality house.
This was an extremely productive trip in so many ways, blessed by God – the new vehicle, the container, the construction progress, the orphanage licensing paperwork started, connections with critical people made, village children’s ministry and so much more – and we give God every bit of the glory for guiding and providing for us. This team was wonderful all the way around. Everyone from our youngest member, 14 year old Cameron Colace, to our oldest members, 70 year olds Gary and Kathy, they all worked so hard and contributed a tremendous amount, not only physically, but the camaraderie through unity in Christ was wonderful. Equally important were all of those at home lifting up the team and specific needs in prayer daily – we couldn’t have done it without your support.
The last 7 people on the team head home early tomorrow morning and should arrive in Holtville by midnight, Lord willing. Please pray for this last step in the journey.
Also, our next trip will be March 16th – 26th. The purpose of this trip will be to build the orphanage for the first week and then to go over to La Gonave Island to do a revival with Pastor Benis during the last weekend. You do not have to be there for the entire time if you can’t get away that long. If you are interested and have any questions, let me know.
Blessings in Christ,
Nikki, aka Madame Ryan
