One Reason Church - Day 5

Another Christ-led day today in Haiti with an amazing team of individuals whose love for God is remarkable! Today began with a 6AM church service, yes you read that right....6AM church service! We were told that this was a service that we would not want to miss so even if we had to forgo some sleep for one night; it was guaranteed to be worth it! The service certainly did not disappoint! It was amazing to see so many people gathered so early on a Friday morning to worship so openly to our heavenly Father! It was an open air building with the music pumping and the Pastor singing praises; it was an experience we will never forget! After an hour and a half, we had to leave to return to the guest house for breakfast and to start our day delivering water again in Cite Soleil.
   

Here we are waiting for our water trucks to fill before we head to deliver in Cite Soleil!



It's amazing how exhausting yet rewarding this work is. We also had the pleasure of once again visiting Hope School and this time we were given a tour of Hope Clinic which was incredible. 





After delivering water in two areas, we were treated to a trip to the pier and take in some of the scenery! What a great time together and we had so much fun with the local kids!


After a quick stop back at the guest house to clean up and change clothes we were off once again to the Home of Sick and Dying Children. As some of us experienced earlier this week; this is an emotionally difficult visit. We all loved on the children, played and fed them. Out of respect for these children, photos are not taken while at the hospital. After leaving the hospital it has been a request of a few of us coffee lovers that we stop at a grocery store to pick up this amazing brew; and a few other treats too! 


We are now back at the guesthouse enjoying fellowship, lots of laughter and planning the events to take place tomorrow! God bless!
