Hi everybody
I am now back to Florida and I would like to thank the Lord and you all for your supports
and prayers during my stay in Haiti. I also would like to thank you all from the bottom of
my heart for your financial supports and prayers that help us build three new homes in
Haiti with the Homes for Poor families in Haiti Project. The families were very thankful
for this life changing gift that you have given to them. They thank you so much for
these beautiful homes. If it was not for these gifts, they would have never even
dreamed of having such beautiful and secure homes with very good sanitation for their
families. They said that they feel safer now, especially with the Cholera disease that is
still killing many people in Haiti. They thank you for these life changing gifts, and they’ll
pray that the Lord keeps blessing you and your family for your good heart.
There are many more families in needs praying that one day we will donate a new
home to them. I told them keep praying for the good Lord is taking good note of our
ministry in Haiti , I am confident that God will open more doors for us to help many
more families in needs there.
It feels good to be back to Florida. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may
have regarding my trip to Haiti and the Housing project.
God bless you all
Your brother in Christ
