Children of Haiti

Our dear friend Kregg has returned to Haiti on the 19th of March. He called this weekend to say that he had arrived safely and had reconnected with these children. He said that they had clapped and cheered when when he came back. The women that are taking care of the children have asked him to stay there with them. He was very touched by this and says that whenever he sits down a child will jump into his lap. Kregg seemed so happy to be reconnected with these children, his voice and his spirit was soaring.

He wanted everyone to know that he has appreciated all the donations and that he has already spent money on food and on school supplies. One of the women is teaching the children during the day.

Kregg feels that one of the main ways that he can help now is to help them build a multi-purpose building that will be a school in the daytime and sleeping quarters in the night and then also a shelter for the rainy season which is on them now. We laughed when we thought about how wonderful it is that he has experience in building structures out of found materials... So.. this will be one of the main things that he will be working on while he is there this trip and your donations will help him in obtaining materials to build this structure.

I saw a piece on the national news last night about the Children of Haiti. They said that there is no clear way to know but that there are probably over 50,000 children that are lost from their parents and families right now. There are many of these makeshift orphanages all over the area and they are providing safe haven for the many dangers that confront these children.

Thank you for your prayers, love and support for these children.
Thank you Kregg!
Love,
