During our 4 day visit, we will be staying/helping out at the Maison Fortune Orphanage (www.maisonfortune.org), which is home to approx. 250 children of all ages. We will be interacting with the kids daily doing such things as: playing sports & games with them, doing arts & crafts, and giving them lots of love! We will also be helping out with various projects around the orphanage, as needed. There are a few items that are hard to find or cannot be purchased in Haiti, so we are bringing over supplies that include: personal hygiene items, arts & crafts, educational supplies, and clothing.
No one on this team has been on a mission trip like this one before, so I love that we are going with no expectations, except that we expect God to show up in amazing ways & make this a life-changing experience for all of us! This group is so diverse & has such a heart for God, and we know that a changed world requires change agents, so we are going to be just THAT! We are excited to be the hands & feet of Jesus to these kids & show them God's love!
God simply calls us to be faithful to the opportunities He gives us. He doesn't require us to be superstars, just faithful, obedient, loving, serving, giving & caring - doing the small things with great love.
Please be praying for us, the country of Haiti, and for the children we will be serving. We can't wait to come back & share our stories & the exciting things that we know God is going to do in many lives!
Heidi
