Good evening all!

We first want to apologize that we didn't get the blog posted last night! Between getting settled with the new team members, a massive down pour, and our truck breaking down this afternoon, this is the first chance we've had to sit down and write.

Yesterday was a very exciting day here in Haiti! The whole team got to start working together on the wall. It was great to see the collaboration between the Trinity and Highview teams, and the Haitian workers.

We took yesterday afternoon off and visited pastor Gasmagne. It was amazing to see all of the great work that God is doing here. When the team first started building his home, there was nothing else on his property. But now, he has planted corn in his yard and has a lovely gazebo and walking paths. You can see all of the blessings that his family has received since moving into their home. 

This morning we got up and traveled to Hinche for church with pastor Giordani. It was great to hear all the blessings that God is doing in their church. There were over 700 people at church, and 2 of them accepted Christ. ‎Pastor Giordani let us know that they baptised over 50 people in the last year!

We then went and visited a church in Sapate. The church is held in the same school building that our team built in 2008 and 2009! It was great to visit the church and hear the work God is doing there. Aside from being a church on Sundays, it is also a school for 475 students, which is over a 100 more students than in 2009. 

On our way home this afternoon, we burnt out the clutch on our truck. We thank God that he was looking out for us, and there was a van passing by that was able to take us all back to our compound. There was 19 of us packed into this van, and while it was not all of our favorite way of travelling, we all made it back safe and sound!

We have attached 4 pictures for you all to enjoy! Two of them are from our day yesterday working and visiting with pastor Gasmagne, and two are from today visiting with pastor Giordani and the church in Sapate. ‎Thank you all for your prayers and support!
