20 YEARS

We just returned tonight from Tom's work banquet. He was recognized for 20 years of service with Mikes Carwash. They had a very nice presentation. We have been very blessed by their company. They treat their associates very well.
Congrats honey!

Sad News

We found out today that one of our NVM students passed away. This picture is of Claudine the child we sponsor (on the left) and the other two girls are twin sisters Ginette and Gina. Ginette died this week. I do not know the circumstances yet. We believe the family tried to fix her with a witch doctor is all I have heard.
Please pray for the teachers, students and especially Gina.
Thanks Stephanie

New Photos












These are some random photos of our trip. We are doing well. The kids went back to school today, except Jeremy has the "Haiti Stomach" possibly from us so he had to stay home. We had a good Easter with Toms family.

Back Home Again

Well the rest of our trip was exciting. The medical clinic went very well. We only saw 350 patients this time though. The school children for the most part look well. The construction team finished the soccer field, louvers for the roof to block the sun and a garden with fence was planted.
Tom unfortunately got sick on Sunday with fever, headache and diarrhea. We gave him some medicine and IV fluids. He was feeling better by Monday and was able to go the the beach with us. He lounged under a tree and drank Coke all day. He is feeling better now.
We had no problems with our flights and everything ran very smoothly. The kids did great with their grandparents too.
It was a blessing again for me to go and to have Tom there with me to see what I have been doing all this time.
Thanks for all the prayers, Ill post some pictures soon.

Our day

We had a great day today. Tom got to drive the backhoe, use power tools and get up very high! It was scarey and Im glad I was in the clinic so I didnt have to see most of it. He did better and felt better today. Sunburnt but good. The clinic is going well. we are all feeling good except one with stomach issues.

day one

Today was a good day. The weather is good, hot but not too bad. The medical clinic went well. Tom got bit by something and had a thorn go through his shoe. He was pretty tired after working in the sun but hopped in the pool when we got back and is feeling much better.
Keep praying,
Steph
