PRAISE GOD! PRAISE GOD! PRAISE GOD!

We've had quite the Sunday! After a good service we visited the people in our yard. First to the Girls dorm visiting the ladies. One of the older ones is a diabetic with a huge sore on her leg, another has an infected wound. Then on to the boys dorm where a man had escaped a fallen building, displacing his knee and breaking his femur. He dragged his body out and a passing motorbike picked him up. It was just last week when he was finally able to get it set at Des Chappelle.

The U.N. escorted Lawrence Jones here from St. Marc and one was a Medic. She took care of the two ladies. It was much appreciated. He had flown from the States to the Dominican and stopped at his 'mission direct', rented a truck and bought food, fuel, and everything we needed. I can't begin to name them all. One thing I thought was so great though, he bought us 1 bottle of olive oil. God had placed it on his heart. He didn't know that just the other day I had knocked the one I just got in St. Marc off the stove and it broke. I felt so badly I cried. His explanation when I asked him what promoted him to bring it, he said, "just because we like it and thought you might like it too." Glory!

How blessed we are!!!! We can't get over someone coming all of those miles, going to all the trouble renting a truck and buying all the needed things. I know there are many more that are doing the same thing. We want to thank you in advance for all you are doing for EGO and the suffering people of Haiti. May God pour you out a blessing your cup cannot contain...
Pastor Chris, Ray and Jim coming all the way from Texas to encourage the people here and to pray with them. The best thing was on Friday night when the children came up; Chris played the guitar and led in some worship songs. After which he had us get in a circle and all three went around and laid hands on each one child/teenager individually, giving a word from the Lord. What a blessed time. Perhaps others did too, but I believe Ketla received the most. In church this morning she was so much in the presence of God singing and praising the Lord that it didn't matter who was beside her. I remember she was next to me holding my hand while they were praying for us and I sensed she received from the Lord. Praise God!

We are looking forward to all the company that will be coming to Dessalines these next few weeks..

Amongest everything else Dad is pressing to get the pads in and the foundation finished before the rains come. He and the boys work together on this project. We covet your prayers.

Thanks for your donations and all of those that are filling a container that will be coming in a few days.
WE ARE BLESSED OF THE LORD!
Love you,
Don & Doris
