Haiti Bound

God is good! The past year has been a time of learning and it has been a wild ride! As we prepare to move our family to Haiti, God has shown us his faithfulness over and over again. He continually confirms our decision to share the love of Christ with those in Haiti. We are very excited to launch our communications network of blogging and e-mail with those of you who are tracking with us during our time of preparation.
For those of you who are just joining in our journey. We will be leaving Canada and going to work with Mission of Hope, which is a Christian non-denominational mission in Haiti, this September 2008. Cheryl will be the Hospital Administrator and Laurens will be the Operations Manager at the mission. Mission of Hope is in a rural village in Haiti where we have served in short term missions before.

Our Prayer Needs/Praises: 
  • Praise God as He continually blesses us "beyond our expectations"!
  • For a calm spirit as we go through all the preparations necessary to move to Haiti - Cheryl's business, moving, selling, our kids preparation, containers to Haiti
  • For our financial support from friends and family - We are in the process of fundraising for our missionary support. Our partnerships have currently raised about 1/3 of our needs.
