Every day in Haiti is filled with moments of “OMG I can’t believe I just saw that.” They can be big things; like our first visit to the Pignon Hospital. This is considered one of the best hospitals in Haiti and Pignon is well known for it. Let’s just say that the conditions there were so horrific that Carl and I vowed to each other, that if something should happen to us (tfu-tfu-tfu), regardless of the consequences, we will take the chance and fly each […]
The first time Carl and I gave something out to the kids, I think it was Laffy Taffy’s, they just kinda gathered around silently, took a piece and said “Meci”. I figured they were scared of us, we were “blans”, new and they didn’t know us. The next few times we gave out things, they behaved the same way, waited silently till we handed them whatever we were giving out, but now that they knew us and we knew their names, they called out all the names of the kids who […]
2012 was an AWESOME year for Loving Haiti! Thank YOU for your generous hearts, support and encouragement. If you remember, Loving Haiti is all about Relief, Rehabilitation and Development. 2012 was marked very much by the Relief stage. But thanks to very generous hearts, we are moving towards the Rehabilitation stage! Let’s talk a walk down memory lane together and praise God for His amazing provision… 1. SOLAR PANELS: 2012 started off right with raising around $10,000 in less than a month to buy solar […]
We’ve been here for almost a week now and there is so much to say, our brains are working overtime and there is so much to take in! We arrived in Port-Au-Prince early Friday morning. We met up with our friend Leriche at the airport. We know Leriche through an Israeli friend who worked here in Haiti. He is a doctor and is opening a clinic in Leogan and we had some medical equipment for him. It was great to see a familiar face in the […]
Just a quick update to let our supporters know what’s been happening this past month! 1. Francois, Madam, and all the kids are SAFE from the hurricane. A ton of rain hit their compound but other than not seeing the sun for a few days(meaning no solar power energy) they are all safe! 2. The well project is still underway. As of now, Francois has running water in the orphanage, guest home and kitchen! The water holding tank as well as the solar panels are […]
After four days of drilling…. THEY FOUND WATER! Last night, after day #3, Francois told us to be praying they find water because after 150ft of drilling they had yet to find it. Fast forward less than 24 hours and we received this e-mail: Dear Denny and Abby Good news for you: I get the water today.Praise the Lord Thank you so so much my friends .God will rewards you my beloved […]
Just wanted to let everyone know that with pledged and received money combined we have raised $16, 970 for the Well Project. That means we only have $3,311 remaining to fundraise! If you have already donated, “Thank You!” If you haven’t, can you please consider?! On behalf of all those sweet kiddos, Mesi (Thank You)
Betsy came into our room a few hours ago asking if she could sleep with us. After snuggling for who knows how long with my soon-to-be kindergartner and being trapped in the middle of a Daddy-Mommy-Betsy sleeping sandwich I woke up, searching for air in-between two hot bodies. I carried her almost 6-year old body back to her bed. Savoring the snuggles, but believing we would ALL sleep better if we […]
Gramma Lynn(Denny’s mom) just landed in Pignon today! She will be lovin’ on those kids for almost 3 weeks. We are SO happy she is there and look forward to reading and posting any updates she sends our way. Please pray for her and for her time with all those sweet kids. Also, please spread the word about the Well Project Fundraiser. We have a lot of fundraising left to do and can use all the help we can get. Hope you are all doing […]
First off, we want to thank everyone who attended the Loving Haiti fundraiser last night in Corvallis. It was definitely a group effort and we thank everyone who contributed to make it a success.
