Teamwork and Audacious Love Days

Day 3 in the clinic we deemed Teamwork Day. In the morning we had the clinic at the church and then went to Francois's (disabled community) in the afternoon. At the clinic Jordan, Naomi, and Kayla saw stroke patients including a mother and daughter. They were so thankful and praised Jesus that there were people to help them and educate them about what a stroke is. The afternoon at Francois's was a crazy whirlwind of problem solving and loving on kids. The final wheelchair adjustments were made and other kids were fitted for equipment to improve their quality of life. Our translators even pitched in to help with certain projects. It was a beautiful scene of Haitians and Americans working together.

Day 4 in the clinic was our final day, which was deemed Audacious Love Day. There ended up being an impromptu stroke camp and back school to be able to help get as many people seen as possible. More of our patients came to Christ! Today was also a day of restoration and forgiveness. The Lord has shown us this week that the work He has called us to do here is really affecting the community as a whole. We are making a difference in one small piece of the world because the Lord has allowed us an amazing opportunity. There have been several people come back to see us this trip that we have seen on previous trips. God has allowed us to build and grow our relationships with the community, our translators, and the church members. Please continue to pray for us as we leave this place. Pray for safe travels for each of our team members. We also ask that you continue to pray for Haiti. Pray that hearts would be open to the Gospel and that each person would feel a desire to have a personal relationship with Christ.
