Day one - Done!



Hello, everyone!

It's pretty crazy to say that we are already nearing the end of our first full day in Haiti, as yesterday was a half day.  As always, our first day was wonderful; a beautiful church service in the morning, a tour of Port au Prince right after, a delicious lunch, naps for most of us, and then church with the children (a first for us).

We are gearing up to have a great week with the kids, and have a bunch of cool stuff planned.  One activity in particular that will be pretty awesome is painting murals for the kids.  We came down thinking we were only going to paint one, and it turns out we will be painting two, one in the boys dormitory and one in the girls.  How exciting is that?!  Super exciting, if you ask me.  We look forward to sharing both the work in progress pics, as well as the finished products!

Thank you for all of your prayers for us.  As Leslie mentioned yesterday, our arrival was smooth & uneventful, which is just what we pray for.  Please continue to pray for us this week as we spend time with and get to know these wonderful children in Haiti, and while we do His work.

-Marie
