- communication:
we will have VERY limited internet access while in Haiti. I will post on here and facebook as soon as possible after we arrive in Grand Goave on Saturday, and a couple times throughout the week as I'm able to. also, american cell phones don't work in Haiti, so you will hear our wonderful voices when we get to share all our stories with you after we get back. :)

- anything else:
we are working with Mission of Hope, located in Grand Goave, Haiti. the MoH website [ http://mohintl.org/ ] has any additional information you may need.


thanks for all of your love and support! please be praying for the people we will encounter in Haiti - both new friends and old - that our team would be a strong example of Christ and His love for His people. pray that this trip would not be about of a bunch of college kids from ohio (and pennsylvania) going somewhere sunny and taking zillions of pictures with some cute kids, but rather, that it would be about us coming alongside of people, helping them to restore what has been destroyed, piece by piece advancing the kingdom.

to Him be the Glory!
