We started our day singing happy birthday to Win. He is a faithful servant of God and we are
delighted he and his wife Elaine chose to celebrate his birthday with us in
Haiti.
Well for some of our team it is their last day with us. Jen, Whitney, Cindy, Sandi, Steve, and Linda
will soon be enjoying a hot shower and the food of their choice in the
states. They have served faithfully this
week and we who are left behind will greatly miss them.
The Mission Center was a hub of activity today. In the sewing class the highlight was when a
few ladies were able to use the sewing machine.
Cindy received a quick Creole lesson in how to say “slow down”. The construction team was working like a
machine. While the finishers sang songs
of praise the desk tops, seats, and desk storage cabinets were getting a
coating of finish. Win and Mahlon’s
carpentry team was making a mountain behind the shop with the cabinets for the
desks. Jon and Stan are a great welding
team and worked nonstop to continually feed desk frames and chair frames to the
crew to grind so Jean and a couple of the Haitian brothers could get a coat of
paint on them to prevent rusting. Jeff
H. makes sure we have what we need form the shop. There
was a lot being built this week but nothing tops the working relationships that
were built.
